I spent the day of New Year and Hogmanay watching a guilty pleasure of mine, Leave It to Beaver, on DVDs.
The New Year is a time of lagniappes from all stores, even though most of them were in the form of discounts. I went to the shopping mall on Friday and availed some of them.Coming to think of all the New Years so far, I miss auld lang syne when we used to go outdoors on a drive, when living in Jamshedpur, India. This New Year, I actually wanted to go into the Cibola National Forest and camp overnight. The forest fires season was not really encouraging. Nevertheless, I went up to the foothills of the mountains. The drive to the mountains was drafty. I went to the couloir near Water Canyon thinking of trekking for a while, but it was very cold and windy. Trekking alone was neither fun nor safe. One has to be always on the qui vive for bear and other wild animals.
Last week has been a complete blooming week for this plant. It flowered every day of the week. This is the flower hodiernal.
