Have you ever seen a flower down
Sometimes angels skip around
And in their blissful state of glee
Bump into a daisy or sweet pea.
~Jessi Lane Adams

the cathedral at Jirího z poděbrad one block from my residence... chimes at noon everyday for 10 minutes... somehow nice

But the moment you turn a corner you see another straight stretch ahead and there comes some further challenge to your ambition. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

challenge? or opportunity. +

Flowers... are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty out values all the utilities of the world. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1844

The flowers are still in bloom here. These are not far from vinohradské vodarná. ...and that butterfly... I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time, several times.

Good luck to a friend on this day with new happenings in Pražského povstání. You are on the right path and you made a good decision.

and to another, weekends home are good for the soul, and hope you feel better soon.

...and as this week starts, I wish other friends, family and my kids a good week also. Enjoy this your first full week in October.

and with me, I am now teaching 24 hours per week; mostly Business English in corporations; still waiting to hear from Berlin about my visa; am enjoying the Fall here, the crisp air, the wine and the cafe's(still) but now inside; I still find I can not express fully in words my feelings for being here. Rainy & windy today and "miles to go before I sleep". + 144

This afternoon, part three

...and finally, a view today of Hradčany, Prague castle, from across the Vltava. Yes, I am known to walk from one end of Prague to the other on weekends. There is always something new to see, even in things I have seen a thousand times before.
