The Day of settling old promises.

Happy national when pigs fly day, today is the day that if anybody’s ever made you a promise + prepositioned it with this admonition that it will be impossible or unintended that it will be fulfilled. This is the day you should check to see if there’s still of the same mindset.

When pigs fly day, holidaycalendar.Io/

1844 Lewis Carol’s Alice in wonderland.

This imagery was invoked in many different formats over time. But the best use is to do something thought impossible on this day. Or, you could book ahead for the next year and plan to do something with somebody ‘s somebody that could have a happening ending once thought impossible. How about that??

Pig in poke, pig in a basket…

Smooth out your weekend

We think that the world goes by and waves at the overcoming people and intercourse with the past is the way of the future. The songs published in the media connect us to the aspirations gone by and are a thermometer to the future.

Sooth

A get away from the day and the night.  The joy of the present sublime. Go to the line then do the recline. Make the moment go to your treasured zest, to borrow when sought. To lend when thought, and sold when bought. KDG

We talked to two

Kayakers on the Nicola River this week; “it took eight hours to boat the 25 kilometers from the Dam on Nicola lake to Garcia Street on the Nicola River in Merritt,”.

This solved the mystery of why large flights of wood ducks were being pushed downriver. We watched at least three fights of these creatures before the appearance of two boaters and paddles appeared .

Blind date

Bean  there and done that.

Funny

Risk reward

Something’s going to affect you more than random dating and aspiring to the universe giving you a soul mate. That’s an entanglement with the wrong person.

This is a relatively benign activity in comic relief and perhaps you are able to respond to it intelligently but beware relationships are serious business and need clear heads to succeed. Good luck.  Clowns are entertaining not usually life building.

Boy scouts founded. July 1907

Huge amounts of monies in damages , statute of limitations periods expanded, future still uncertain.

Changing demographics brought  more choice for boys, girls and adults. No longer one stop solution to moral and person building activities.

Mormon Church withdrawal of Sponsorship

The lawsuits  included more than 80,000 men over 30 years subject to compensation ranging from $3500.00  to 2.7 million. Bankruptcy in play.

A good program fell into  wrong management…

Light show

Polar lights, also known as auroras, are natural light displays in the Earth’s sky, predominantly seen in high-latitude regions. They are caused by the interaction between the solar wind and the Earth’s magnetosphere. The different colors of auroras are produced by various gases in the atmosphere. For example, green lights are created by oxygen molecules, while red lights are produced by higher-altitude oxygen. Viewing auroras can be a breathtaking experience and is often associated with natural wonders and folklore in many cultures. If you want to learn more about polar lights, you can check out the following video: Polar Lights Interpretation Video.
