I gather nobody managed to observe the dust plume, then? Bummer... Ah well... I definitely didn't have the equipment to see it, even if I had hauled out my backyard scope and stayed up till 3AM... but I can't quite get away w that anymore anyway Would have been fun if a big 'scope got pictures!

Oops, I didn't post a flowering weed yesterday! Have some green carpet weed, Mollugo verticillata, I found down by the picnic tables when I took the dog out in the AM.

Lots of little white five petaled flowers sticking out from leaf nodes on a low plant under a table.  The leaves are thin and long almost like catchweed but not so regular.  A couple ants around the size of a flower petal give a sense of scale

Actually yeah: meant to ask, people who have seen the new Odyssey (no actual spoilers, s'il vous plaît!) I hear it's pretty violent as an on screen experience. I also hear "see it on the biggest screen you can". Is it worth the big screen BECAUSE of the high fidelity violence, or IN SPITE OF it?

Also maybe an "it's still wet out" mushroom for today... Robots suggest this is Amanita flavoconia, "yellow patches", but again, I'm not confident in mushroom ID

A little tawny-yellow mushroom with a few spots on the cap and a little dirt on top... sticking up from amongst moss and grass and forb

It's still low to the ground and you can easily see neither gill nor stipe

Flowering weed from July 17, I didn't post this but it just came up... it's a much, much tinier Euphorbia: spotted spurge, or spotted sandmat (... ♪ bring me a dream...)

Teeny tiny flowers peeking out from above leaf notes in a little bitty weed  One of those flowers next to a US one cent piece.  The flower is about the size of the L in Liberty

And another flowering weed from today: flowering spurge ... I think this is Euphorbia corollata Pretty li'l guy! This is just past the edge of the grass but not reaaaally into the woods...?

Tiny white five-petaled flowers on a fairly tall plant with dark green oblong leaves

Flowering weed from lunchtime: poorjoe has started blooming! ("Rough buttonweed", but a different genus than true buttonweed... Hexasepalum teres) This'n seems to have been mown recently

Tiny purple four petaled flower ... with a couple chopped off leaves

Me: resting Dog: lies down next to me Me: that's nice... pats dog's li'l head Dog: rolls into me, pushes me over, puts four feet in the air and asks for belly rubs ... it's a good thing I like you, stinker

... by the time I stumble into a thread where my only reply is "Qu'est-ce que le f—" I better log out a bit. *grabs book, puts dog on leash, lies down on hammock*
