    Add your blog to the list, sir! It’s 51! Enjoyed this. Especially the Dickens’ quote.

    Haha never realized that the world is a cat!

    Amazing!!! Thanks a lot 🎁🌈💚🤍🌟

  5. Thank you very much👍👍👍

  6. The lightning strike from a jet plane, the view from Mt Everest, and the train routed through the Chinese apartment building are amazing The cyclist’s legs after the Tour-de-France are shocking. My personal experience lends me to believe that Angela N. Blount’s quote proves true quite often. Thanks, Mitch! 🙂

    I’ve seen “the world is a cat” before, and love that one! I get licked by a cat almost daily, so I’ve felt that tongue. That pic from Everest is incredible!

  8. Train running through an apartment; the ultimate convenience if that happens to be your stop!

  9. Dede says:

    The world is indeed an interesting place. It’s a daily learning environment because I seem to learn something new everyday. Even if it’s my grandchild telling me I am silly.

  10. Masterpiece of its own kind👍

    I love posts like this. They’re a good reminder that wonder doesn’t always live in the big, planned moments. A lot of what’s most interesting seems to show up when you’re paying attention to the odd edges and small details. Thanks for the nudge to slow down and actually look.

  12. That’s a good one, Mitch 😁

  13. Cool and impressive as your blog 💖. Thanks for sharing

  14. Fascinating! I really enjoyed this–and I hope you don’t mind, but I nicked the “Cat” meme. It does explain a lot!
