Interesting perspective and quite sobering....Remarkable images of families from different parts of the world. They're surrounded by the food they consume in one week; we're also told the cost of that food. This is a way of showing the differences in the world.

I was in Washington last weekend @ Sasquatsh Festival, and I got to experience this:

I remember shouting and screaming with the crowd so loud that I couldn't hear myself, but just a ringing and the vibrations. I wish I could write in better words and explain how great and magical this performance was, I was so close to the stage and I felt it all of it, the sounds, the words that came out of his mouth, the energy of a complete heart in which this man Justin Vernon sang. It was poetry to all the senses.

Zion National Park

I went to Zion a few weeks ago, it was my first time. A little while back someone had promised me they would take me, ...such are broken promises. I'm so glad I didn't wait, What a lovely place ! I want to go back and stay at the Lodge. I only got to do the Angels Landing trail, so there is lots more for me to explore. you like my socks? got tons of compliments on the trail, there are alot of people out there that are fans of socks, let me tell you !
Me on the trail to Angels Landing, this view seriously makes me want wings !
I've never seen a leaf like this, I never tired of the nature's designs.
