QOTD: “I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.” ~ Alan Watts

2. It is nice parking at Magnolia Branch Wildlife Reserve. It is wooded. The sites are not close together. Trees separate the sites. The managers spread people out as much as possible. I need to spend more time in places like this.
3. WOW! I need to replace the over the range microwave/convection oven in WHQ. This should be fairly easy if I plan well and I can lift the unit.
4. I really enjoyed reading Dr. Perry’s blog on assessing the quality of your life. He talks about expressing joy, emotional health, physical health, growth and expressing love.
It’s a short, informative, and thought provoking read.
Thank you for visiting. Your visits, likes, and comments are a delight. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. ❤️ 💡 ☮️

Red Ball craved adventure. On the first day it snuck out into driveway.
By the next morning Red Ball had made it into the woods by a large creek.
On the third day Red Ball was no where to be found. I like to think Red Ball was not recovered. I’d like to believe Red Ball rolled into the creek to experience more.
Scene 3:
Today is a travel day.
Possibilities is a nice card for the continuation of my adventures.
“The eagle has an overview of all the possibilities contained in the landscape below, as he flies freely, naturally and effortlessly through the sky. He is really in his domain, very grand and self-contained.
This card indicates that you are at a point where a world of possibilities is open to you. Because you have grown more loving towards yourself, more self-contained, you can work easily with others. Because you are relaxed and at ease, you can recognize possibilities as they present themselves, sometimes even before others can see them. Because you are in tune with your own nature, you understand that existence is providing you with exactly what you need. Enjoy the flight! And celebrate all the varied wonders of the landscape spread before you.
Mind can accept any boundary anywhere. But the reality is that, by its very nature, existence cannot have any boundary, because what will be beyond the boundary?–again another sky.
That’s why I am saying skies upon skies are available for your flight. Don’t be content easily. Those who remain content easily remain small: small are their joys, small are their ecstasies, small are their silences, small is their being. But there is no need! This smallness is your own imposition upon your freedom, upon your unlimited possibilities, upon your unlimited potential.”
6. A scientific theorem
“Bell’s Theorem
First published Wed Jul 21, 2004; substantive revision Wed Mar 13, 2019
Bell’s Theorem is the collective name for a family of results, all of which involve the derivation, from a condition on probability distributions inspired by considerations of local causality, together with auxiliary assumptions usually thought of as mild side-assumptions, of probabilistic predictions about the results of spatially separated experiments that conflict, for appropriate choices of quantum states and experiments, with quantum mechanical predictions. These probabilistic predictions take the form of inequalities that must be satisfied by correlations derived from any theory satisfying the conditions of the proof, but which are violated, under certain circumstances, by correlations calculated from quantum mechanics. Inequalities of this type are known as Bell inequalities, or sometimes, Bell-type inequalities. Bell’s theorem shows that no theory that satisfies the conditions imposed can reproduce the probabilistic predictions of quantum mechanics under all circumstances.
The principal condition used to derive Bell inequalities is a condition that may be called Bell locality, or factorizability. It is, roughly, the condition that any correlations between distant events be explicable in local terms, as due to states of affairs at the common source of the particles upon which the experiments are performed.”

Bell himself wrote: “If [a hidden variable theory] is local it will not agree with quantum mechanics, and if it agrees with quantum mechanics it will not be local. This is what the theorem says.” John Bell, Speakable and Unspeakable in Quantum Mechanics, Cambridge University Press, 1987, p. 65.
10. Something that was lost
I lost this UV filter when the camera landed nose first on the asphalt.
I’ve just sat around. I could not get the energy going. Seeking the flow, I went for a short walk down by the lake.
I’m trying.
I have gone to my gurus; Jesus, Alan Watts, Ram Dass, and Sadhguru, for renewal and encouragement. I have journaled online and off. I have taken and edited pictures. Made food. Enjoyed libations.
