Day 3.296: Nature's plant pot

Another photo from our Saturday morning walk by Vloman Kill. We spotted this tiny plant growing in a natural plant-pot formed inside a damaged tree. I wonder if it has any chance of growing into a big plant in this location. Being pioneering is not always a recipe for easy success I suppose.

Today is election day here and our chance to make 'taxation without representation' jokes.  It was also a day off school for the girls (although E5N1 went to his preschool) and they both had play-dates.  Exile #3 going to her "recess-friend's" house to be bothered by her younger sister and little brother and Exile #4 having a classmate over here this afternoon.  It sounds like it all went well.

In other news, the car is now being repaired - apparently it will cost approximately $10,000 and take a couple of weeks to complete.  Life (like the label list for this post) seems quite full.
