Whimsy


On a walk in Lexington, I spotted these pink plastic flamingos looking for all the world like turkey wannabes. So I tiptoed up to the front door and snapped a photo. I don't know the birds' owners, but I thanked them silently for making me smile.

As we drove home yesterday, east over the mountains, I thought of many things, but from time to time I would remember these "turkeys" and laugh to myself. Such can a single sight loosen the mood, set the mind to spinning happily.

It's a good way to enter the holiday season. With a bit of levity.
