Given that a bit of cold and snow has put a hold the greening up process around here this week it just felt necessary to somehow put a bit of green in this whole sheltering at home procedure. Thus a dose of green provided by pouring over old photographs of thermal features in Yellowstone National Park from bygone days was just what the doctor ordered.

Not quite spring but blue skies and green bacterial mats provided just what we needed to help get this weekend off to a wonderful start.

A wonderful weekend to all.
