I should be home doing something useful but who’s going to remind everybody about this apple blossom?

Frosty days ahead.

The Fonte Fria in the woods of Buçaco, a sort of waterfall with steps, and the area at the bottom which also included a pond with a swan and a path lined with tree ferns where there was a sign apologizing for any holes dug in the path by wild boar that wandered there at night. Then I wanted to go into the woods at night to look for wild boar but I ended up staying in the palace/hotel in the evening to see this wild Portuguese Celtic band called Drusuna. Portugal was like that. This day in November of 2019.

The bird bath is new. It’s funny. I found the one I wanted but I couldn’t afford it. But then the right amount of money came to me almost out of nowhere so I ordered it. It looks like it’s just set on the ground but under it I have deep gravel and a flagstone so it should stay steady.

Nature doesn't hurry, yet everything is accomplished.
