What a astounding world we live in. I am continually awed by the natural world and the wonders that time and evolution have created. We come from who knows where and are plopped down in a world of wonder. Oh how I wish we could stop fighting and vying for power and just dwell together in this fabric of beauty and mystery. Seems so crazy when you zoom out.

With a couple of friends at lighthouse at Michigan City. Everything was covered in ice and the lake was frozen quite a ways from the shore. It was quiet and the place felt magical.

pier.

This is a scathing indictment of AI grammer correction software. I run into this all the time with Word. I'm writing and it is going down exactly as I intend, then all of a sudden I get the blue underline and the algorithm wants to 'simplify' the wording. Sigh.
