Yay - the sun was out this afternoon with a burst of double buttercups challenging the bright blue sky. Another spring tree in blossom to keep me smiling.

As an observer of nature, I can only continue to appreciate ... and to wonder. Curiosity and awe are so natural for true learning - and, unfortunately, not evident in schooling in most situations. Are we seeing more of an intersection between learning and schooling these days? Hmmm - I know that is a goal for many, but I'm having difficulty judging the potential commonalities. On the 'wonder' note, I was re-introduced to Wolfram/Alpha tonight - I had forgotten about this cool computational knowledge source and had no idea about the widgets and the ability to create your own - great thinking exercise!
