Good evening, Kibitzers!
As I write on Monday morning, I have a whole adventure lined up between now and the time this posts, in which I leave work early today (work not being so much a physical location as a state of mind), drive to New Jersey, and on Tuesday morning go to the dentist and then drive back up here.
It is absolutely not a viable arrangement, and I plainly need to bid my dentist adieu and find somebody local. I’m mostly being stubborn and resistant to change at this point, but it’s kind of hard to change being resistant to change, if you know what I mean.
Anyway, today we have some very short and soothing video. I haven't had access to regular “broadcast” TV (I recognize it’s not really broadcast any more) in decades, but I understand that CBS Sunday Morning offers these “Moment in Nature” segments regularly. They are un-narrated footage that offers a brief respite from literal and figurative garbage. There’s a YouTube playlist with nearly 500 of these little suckers, so paring it down was hard, but here are some I liked.
