Wild observations

Well, even nature observers get kolds in their doses sometimes. I go on a trip?I get a cold. A pattern is emerging here.

Both times to Europe I come back either already with a cold or I developed one soon after.

This was my first road trip in years and ... you know the rest.

The column still had to be written despite sneezing, coughing, dripping and general malaise. A friend, Alice, was willing to take me on a day trip to explore an unknown, to me, conservation area in Gainesville. There are several of these little pieces of land set aside for nature.
From the kitchen

This Thanksgiving weekend you will want to have lots of baked goods on hand for your own family and any visiting relatives and friends.
