"rocks that looked more magical when slicked by the tide" Ain't that the truth! I have jars of them and they require immersion to look even a fraction of how lovely they did when collected!
I moved from Oregon to France nine years ago. They call magpies pies here, one of the few cases where the French is shorter than the English. In Oregon, magpies stuck to dry Eastern Oregon, and were pretty much rural. In France, they often lead urban lives and show no special preference for drier places. Heckel and Jeckel were magpies.
Beautiful. Forget just who but there was once an author who refused an interview as she had to stay home to watch her cactus bloom. I know the feeling.

"There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold." Brilliant, my friend. Happy to be along for the ride.
Led Zeppelin is my love language 😂

Thanks so much for giving it a read, Charlene💚

I would like to live in a world where we schedule around our cacti blooming, please.
Count me in for that one!
