If you're feeling the worries and noise of the world at the moment, I'm sending you this beautiful walk among the chestnut trees, the pale sun flickering through the leaves and falling in pools of light on the ground. The river is sparkling at the end of the lane, and all around the birds are singing out into the morning as the mist clears. I hope it brings a little Peak District calm to your day.

Every single year, autumn takes my breath away. I always write it off as the harbinger of the dark days of winter and forget just how perfect it is, with its gentle, unassuming beauty. Walking on this quiet path, all around me was the drip of mist from the leaves, a soft light that fell so slowly, and gold, gold, gold, everywhere I looked.

Trump and his creepy administration are like a cancerous tumor in the American organism, whose destructive effect on the system becomes more pronounced the longer it is allowed to operate.
I still find it difficult to accept Trump and America being mentioned in the same breath.
The billionaires are protecting Trump until they empty the treasury, and to then divide America’s resources among themselves.

Mobster.
They are in for themselves. Trump turned America into "Mobster Inc." - with a little help from loyal family members, friends, politicians & oligarchs.
It's all about big bucks, crime, corruption & loyalty.

It strikes me that a great many ills can be cured by walking through the shade of mighty trees on lanes filled with birdsong. I hope these precious places will always be there to provide quiet and calm in a loud world.

Bees can fly 12 miles without getting lost.
Bees can even recognize human faces and add & subtract!
Bees are essential for many food chains.
Ideally they live for about 6 weeks in summer and 20 weeks in winter.
In its short life span a bee produces about 1/12 teaspoon of honey!
