Let's twist again
like we did last summer

Nature is all amazement

While the terrestrial world is twisted, the celestial world is swirled.

Why do I like it? because the form meandears to fit nlcely into the embedding forest and it picks up the colors of the bark and the leafs oh beautiful.

Some of the lakes on the current aquatic plant trip are so shallow we cannot use a boat. Hence wading is the only feasible option.Today I got stuck in a subsurface sinkhole and my Crocs disappeared while I was wrangling my exit from the treacherous trap. Fortunately they provide a colour contrast to the dominant greens all around us thus retrieving them later was not that difficult

Went looking for swallowtail kites today. No luck, we are perhaps a week or two early. They frequent the melon fields just before the melons are picked because there are lots of bugs for them to eat at that time. Today, the melons lay slowly ripening in the hot Florida sun, kiteless and forlorn, just like us.

My immune system seems to have killed the intruders.

We will possibly never know, who the intruders were.

To make a long story short: the throw me out of the hospital today and I am very happy about that.

I will need pain kilkers still for a few weeks, but then the pain should gradually fade

[John Geerts]

Good news you are released, Frank.  Very strange they cannot find the cause of your 'problems'.

[Ann]

I had been wondering for some time if you were still confined to the hospital and am very happy to learn that you have now been released and are on the mend!

[Frank Fremerey]

thank you for your good wishes. yes. four weeks were a long time and the strength of the pain was mind bending. now I found when to take the right amount of pain killers. 20.00 hours. 800 mg Ibu. run, Frank run. plus 400 in the afternoon

[Bruno Schroder]

Glad to hear you've been released, Frank.
