How Many Days in a Row Can I Say Busy, Busy Day???

Apparently several! So let's just say that today was a lovely, sunny day - very chilly but it was a delight to see the clear blue skies! I did a Zumba class because it was too cold and foggy to walk early this morning, spent the afternoon doing botanical garden stuff....just finished up now. 

But I did manage to get outside long enough to take a photo of a little patch of lichen that has grown on a rock in my back garden. I just noticed it the other day and was so intrigued. It's not a perfect photo, and I may try again in the mid-morning when there's more light. I looked it up and it's called 'Mealy Pixie-Cup' or Cladonia chlorophaea. Don't you love that common name?! 

I'll try to look at journals tonight...in the meantime, thank you all so much for your lovely comments and stars!
