How's my humor blog looking? About like this:

So now back to our last full day up in Omena and the vicinity last year.

Back at our rental home: the big side garden and the steps up to the patio where [profile] bunny_hugger's parents stayed so much, given her mother's agonizing back pain.

Columbo taking another chance to patrol the grounds.


SAM_7326.jpg

Keeping an eye on that volleyball just in case it needs to answer some questions.


SAM_7332.jpg

Columbo keeping a respectable interest in me and showing off that big ol' ear.

If you look closely, you can see some bunny tongue.


SAM_7335.jpg

Columbo wanting the volleyball to feel nice and secure before he turns to ask it a few key questions.

And then [profile] bunny_hugger and I went to Leelanau State Park, around the Grand Traverse Lighthouse, to have a little time on the beach and on the lakeside in the evening light.

We stopped at a not particularly sandy part of the shoreline (there is a sandy region, although this part of the state has a lot of rocky beaches). Anyway, here's the kinds of water and plantlife you get at the beach.

So yeah, I took a bunch of pictures of plants with Lake Michigan in the background. I like it.


Trivia: In 1847 there were about 335,000 workers employed in Paris. In 1848 there were about 147,000. Source: 1848: The Revolutionary Tide in Europe, Peter N Stearns.

PS: Reading the Comics, September 7, 2018: The Playful Mathematics Blog Carnival Is Coming Edition so here's a few more comic strips, just to wrap things up.
