Let Me Soar

beflügelt = to be buoyed

I’m resolving to just wing it and see what happens.”

Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbs

I’m sticking with Calvin and/or Hobbs and forego making any resolutions.

PS: While I’m writing this I am reminded of the irony that I did not make a New Year’s resolution but decided already in December to start running again. I can feel the ice pack in the hollow of my knee because so far I didn’t soar but rather feel sore. It’s a compelling argument for going slow, with my camera around my neck, and sitting for hours on my computer.

Wednesday Quote #1

She flies by her own wings

I almost missed this challenge – A Photo a Week Challenge: Things with wings – so I looked at all the entries so far and I won’t even try to compete with all the gorgeous birds, and bees, and butterflies.

And to round it off here is a German car number plate.  I like that sometimes the letters make actual words.  It helps if you live in Wiesbaden (WI) but really sucks for people living in the Börde area (WZL) – formerly Wanzleben (“here there be bugs”).
