Your African pix are totally awesome! ๐๐๐
Iโve always loved these. As a kid my brother and I called them potato ๐ฅ trees. Such a soft and tranquil scene with these cranes. Beautifully coloured ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป

oooh beautifully done! ๐๐ค one of my brothers joined the peace corps and is in Africa...he said depending on where you are sometimes he has to lock the door just to keep baboons out ๐ ๐ค

Your brother must be having an amazing time over there, I hope his work in the Peace Corps gives him immense satisfaction. Hope you are doing well, have you had much time to read lately? Itโs not my normal go to genre at all, but I read the fantasy novel The Starless Sea recently and was astonished by it. ๐ท๐๐ท๐๐ท๐๐ท๐๐ท@<me42>

Canโt recall if you read Fantasy or not @<me42> but if you try The Starless Sea just be prepared for an unusual format....itโs multiple stories about multiple characters that you have to remember so that you can begin to piece together the overall narrative as the same characters appear in the various stories, but under different guises. And itโs all quite beautiful and fantastical but at times a bit confusing, and a bit weird. I really enjoyed it, but some people seem to really dislike it. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
