Georgia
Georgia – We made it to Georgia. Some road construction along the way really shows how much clay they have in this part of the country. Amazing how the world is made up of so many soil types and landscapes that go with them.
I heard a comic talking about the earth, something like this below.
Okay, folks, let’s take a moment to appreciate just how hilariously absurd our lives are! Here we are, trudging through our daily grind—stuck in traffic, scrolling through cat memes, and obsessing over whether we should order pizza or sushi for dinner. Meanwhile, we’re standing on a giant spinning rock, hurtling through the cosmos at a dizzying 67,000 miles per hour!
Seriously, 67,000 miles per hour! That’s faster than your last attempt to get out of a family dinner! And we’re doing all this while orbiting a massive ball of fire that’s about 93 million miles away. I mean, come on, talk about a cosmic game of dodgeball!

We see no evidence of the earth spinning. We only believe it because we were taught that in our government schools. If we were spinning that fast, people with vertigo would be really messed up! Lots of things we’ve been taught don’t make sense when you think about it.
Very true Mary.
Actually were going much faster than 66-67,000 mph. That speed is the earth going around the sun. But the sun is dragging us around the Milky Way at around 500,000 mph! But i understand your comparison of us driving at some silly car speed compared to that!
It is so strange to think of it that way. We are so small when we think of the universe. 🙂
Sandra, I was marveling at that group of trees in your first photo, all looking so uniform and standing tall, then in the third photo, similar trees on the other side were bending over – yikes! They sure are tall trees – what type are they if you know?
I am not sure what they are, but they are planted in places that have been harvested for lumber. So it must be a specific tree just for that. The hurricane that went through here bent them over in the last photo. I would not want those in my yard. 🙂
OK, I wondered as they were all so tall and skinny looking. I see – I was not thinking about the hurricane and should have as they are bent over, not snapped. We had a derecho here in 1980 and the City had planted small trees in the median grassy area for several miles. The wind from the derecho bent the trees over to the ground, but did not break them. They had to remove all those new trees and never replanted them. I would not want them either – they look very top heavy!
Life is amazing.. Glad you arrived okay…
Thank you very much Sue 🙂
Fun! Thanks for the info! Love it.
You are so welcome Marland 🙂
