Laughter & is the Best Medicine – 20200402

Jeff



Dear JBRish readers. During this time of increased anxiety #worry and isolation #I think it is a bit of a relief to sit back and try to find something to laugh about. This is not an attempt to provide humor in bad taste.

As you can see #there are others around the world who are trying to lighten the global burden by offering a smile or two albeit a small smile; perhaps just a grin.

ATTRIBUTION – If there is an item posted on JBRish for which there is no attribution and someone can provide accurate #verifiable identification of the originator #kindly leave it in a comment and I will provide appropriate annotation.

Photography: My Shot – How Wonderful Normal Was!

Jeff

During these troubling times, I look for avenues of encouragement and inspiration. The Mary Jean Iron quote in the picture below touched me because it impressed upon me how often we take the “normal” for granted. During sheltering-at-home days, I am forced to recall how wonderful were my utterly normal days.

I took the photograph on a rather normal day at Cathedral Gorge State Park in Nevada. It is located just outside the small town of Panaca with only two traffic lights. In reality, only one is in town.

It was a rather normal day made extra special by the beautiful early evening glow on the colorful clay mounds and hoodoos. The moon rising above the forms added an additional punctuation to how special this otherwise normal day really was.

I hope you are soon back to your wonderfully normal days!
