Before our huge rains last winter, our local stream still managed twists and turns in the field before draining off.

A small section of Littlehampton's Long Bench

The unique and colourful long bench has become an iconic part of Littlehampton’s Seafront, featuring in many visitor’s holidays snaps and marketing images for the town. The structure, measuring 324 metres, was designed by Studio Weave with the help of local school children and funded by a regeneration grant and a donation by the family of Body Shop founder Anita Roddick. The slats of the bench are made from recycled hardwood and over 200 of them are engraved with messages and memories from visitors and local people. The bench runs continuously from the seafront kiosks to the East Beach café, dipping, twisting and turning along the promenade. There are two shelters where the bench curves and bends into unusual shaped seats, a favourite photo opportunity with visitors

Lovely to look at, but a flimsy excuse for a snow day.

It is still snowing as can be seen against the blue shed in the background. Snow-covered ground, dark tree branches piled with perhaps an inch of snow which won’t last long.

The Flint Hills are 82,000 square miles of unplowed tallgrass prairie. In a typical year, ranchers annually burn thousands of acres of grassland to reduce the abundance of undesirable trees and shrubs while promoting nutritionally rich grass for that summer's grazing.

Well, if you're a woman working in a male-dominated field who's always worked hard and assumed that the system would be fair to you and then become conscious that you have male colleagues who ask for 10 times as much while being one-tenth as good… yeah.

An infamous Spanish kiss overshadowed meritorious women doing their job — can you believe it? - ABC News

Sometimes I forgot how to relax on vacation. This last time I took my watercolors and pens to do some sketches. This one is an old farmhouse that was down from our campsite. Simple yet so satisfying to create.
