Today's Photo Challenge: Wind

Wind twisted Limber pine from Craters of the Moon ID 2016

Normally I'd be able to go outside and take a picture, Pocatello is usually windy. But today it's still and sunny and warm (47 degrees F). I guess I'm in for a blizzard soon.

Today's Photo Challenge: Celebrate National Hot Tea Month

About the book, I read "The 13th Child" by Patricia C. Wrede and LOVED it. In it she mentions a woolly rhinocerous. I'd never heard of such a creature and wondered if she made it up. Well, no it isn't made up. They existed along with woolly mammoths in the Pliestocene. Awesome, right? Then I read another book "The Wilmington Years" by Ilona Andrews and it also includes Pliestocene mammals. I then fell down the research rabbit hole to learn more about the creatures... I think it's my job to keep my interlibrary loan folks entertained.

And the tea? Well hot chai latte of course.

Art behind my home office door
I've had the three upper pictures for almost 40 years. The bottom one of the three is an original oil from Poland. Then we have my favorite photo that I took of Old Faithful. The glass work was painted by my mother and gifted to me when Shanna was a baby. And finally the mirror that I picked up in the 80s.

Today's Photo Challenge: Do we continue?

On Facebook: I've done two years of photo challenges. Do we want to do another one? Does this format work (I post to my timeline) or do you want me to start a Group. Let me know. And thanks to everyone who participated even a little bit in this madness.
After y'all said you enjoy things the way they are I'm changing things up for the Photo Challenge this year. I've got lots of National day of ___ for you to figure out a picture for. Also I want to state that the goal is for you to have taken the photo. But I don't care when or where. Yes it's always better if you took it on that day. But with 365 photos it's impossible for most of us to make that work.
See you tomorrow
Jenny
