To measure out for the eye the way

Here are some path signs in north parts of Nuuksio, photographs taken on February 22nd and March 14th.

This year I have so far got 734 km riding the bicycle. I think it is a bit more than last year, despite having flu, and bicycle repairs. It feels good to not be sitting in a car in a traffic jam.

(Posting title is from the poem Snow Signs by Charles Tomlinson.)

a happy Friday it is.. But I am overstimulated by my visit here; my goodness

1. spectacular photographs
2. -links to articles with more links inside those articles.
I feel a Ogden Nash, slash, Robert frost poem coming on.. 6 links diverged in a Finland photographers blog.. And I... Clicked each one until my brainithclogged...

-great reads though.. I have a take on bus stop topic i like to express like this:

teacher to student: "I expect you to be original..and now I will tell you exactly how and what to do in order to achieve that goal."

and I have in my own archives the bus lesson I learned from john madden: don't waste all your time, talent, energy, money conquering your fear; find your bus. /upshot version..

-and then, what is familiar to you and many is actually bran new to me.. The finnish introvert/extrovert story.. audible laughter.

I am a barefoot introvert by blood & nature; shoe'd extrovert by cultural demand.. Putting that book on my intrigue list..

lastly.. I do experience some guilt

considering you do the treacherous dangerous hikes on and in the snow to take the photographs. And all I do is let my warm fingertips glide across the cell phone glass to see them..



have a blessedly peaceful, quiet, beautiful, healthy week!

Thanks! But the hikes are not dangerous, it would be much more dangerous to not go for a hike...
