This was a morning when it was definitely worth it to stop, get off the bike path, and sit with the squirrels for a few moments. The squirrels were pretty busy this morning straightening up their creekside home, so I think I enjoyed it more than them.

My husband and I were struggling to remember the term "heliotropic" (or "tracking the sun") the other day when we looked at a grouping of sunflowers. We decided it is much more important just to remember that sunflowers follow their heart.
