( Wednesday NO PO) Today is National Grief Awareness Day, National Beach Day & National Toasted Marshmallows Day

Post by Z is for Zangie » Wed Aug 30, 2023 2:02 am

Lots of people are sad or have serious grief, I am always aware and in tune with feeling their feelings and trying to be helpful. It can be hard, everything sounds like a platitude, though sometimes just letting them talk about it works...

I love the beach, though I don't love laying in the sun ( boring...lol), or being seen in a bathing suit...lol..I have seen some awesome beaches, from NYC, Northern Jersey ( went to a wedding reception on a place at the beach there, from Myrtle Beach, from Ft Lauderdale, Grand Bahama Island, and Punta Cana...Haven't seen a beach on the Pacific yet, working on it...

Yum..roasted marshmallows, haven't had any in years though

This shocking view was taken by a drone flying along the cliff face of Tianmen Mountain in China. The mountain is over 5000 feet high and each day thousands of pilgrims climb the narrow wooden ladder nailed to the sheer rock.
There's an ancient temple on top

Yeesh, I'm dizzy just looking at it. Plus, I couldn't make it up that trail any loner...That is just too scary to boot.

I didn't know there was a marshmallow plant - seems it's been around for a long time

' Marshmallow plants are very old. The ancient Egyptians would mix the plant’s mucilaginous sap with honey and nuts to make a sweet confection.'
Looked it up, means moist and sticky
