There are billions of people and a version of normal to go along with each one of them. No two versions are exactly the same. There will be hundreds of thousands of little things that make up your version of normal. With any luck you can find people that have close to the same idea of what normal is that you do. These are your friends. Anyone else you try to tolerate as best you can.
....
The exact definition of normal depends on who's running the asylum.
This overweight bald guy was telling his buddy about being chased by a ferocious dog. He said, "I ran as hard as I could until I spotted this tree with a limb 21 and a half feet off the ground, so I jumped up to get it." His buddy asked, "Did you get it?' "Well, I missed it on the way up, but I got it on the way down."
Bill - Anytime I'm not sure what you're talking about, it leads back to Lord of the Rings.
John - Apple trees?
Kathy - Yes.
Deb - Now you're going to make me count. ... A quick count is 21 mature trees on my 3/4 acre lot. I have 8 more trees planted that the rabbits keep chewing on but haven't died yet. I've lost about 5-10 new tree plants to the rabbits and deer.
number 11 is a weird looking tree. I like the one that looks like a man is hugging the tree.
ReplyDeleteRiver - 11 almost looks like an alien from another planet.
ReplyDeleteI never, ever tire of trees. Thank you. Again.
ReplyDeleteSue - I may do a couple of days next week. I still have over a week's worth at 25 pictures a day.

ReplyDeleteSimmons - A true urban legend.
ReplyDeleteI'm Treebeard, and I approved this message.
ReplyDeleteTrees are beautiful. I think I'll plant a couple today.
ReplyDeleteI want to live on the street in the third photo.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have lots of trees around your house.

I love the fourth photo. And I'm nuts about the 19th one (channeling Bilbo and his groaner puns now :))
ReplyDeleteFantastic pictures. Looking forward to more if you decide to keep on.
Public Service post, Mike!
ReplyDeleteTook me a moment to see the squirrels.
ReplyDeleteJenny - Don't encourage Bilbo. Once he gets going he won't stop. But he does put tree-mendous effort into them.
ReplyDeleteCloudia - AH the public. A scary place to be.
Lady - I almost couldn't figure out why I save that picture. I had to blow it up.
Been busy and am catching up. Trees? Thanks!!
