“The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions--the little, soon-forgotten charities of a kiss or smile, a kind look or heartfelt compliment.” ― Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Personal Commentary/Observation
Scatter-brained today. As I was walking my lunchtime route through Estes Park, I noticed more and more daisies sprouting, a tree I figured to be long-dead after Snowmageddon had branches cracked and broken off due to the recent high winds, peepers croaked in the still-standing pools of water, and a warbler or two singing on the corner. Sadly, no one was throwing any tips their way. Caught myself watching this animation collection of stories, "Halo Legends". I blame my youngest NRHB for this as he was the one that first introduced me to the Halo game on Xbox. I like the storyline the Legends animation.
