Okay I don’t think everything is dangerous. I believe that there is danger.

When I looked up shooting on my news app, 4 different ones appeared, the latest was 10 hours ago and the earliest was 58 minutes ago

They were a car park shooting, a triple shooting, a shooting, and a nurse shot while treating a victim from a mass shooting.
This thread is not about crime, politics, religion or society. It's about The Great Outdoors. Please stay on topic.
Fester, I'm not much for the beach but Upper Goose Creek Valley must be next door to Heaven.

Such a pity that the topic of this thread, has changed to what is now being discussed . Not very polite to the the person who started this thread .

Eldred, this is the best forum I’ve posted on in AGES. After the gardeners leave, I’ll post pics of shelf clouds from yesterday and our hummingbird chick that just hatched yesterday.

I will NOT tell Miss Hummingbird that you said that - she worked VERY hard making her nest sturdy. And yes, it’s true, newborn hummingbird chicks are NOT particularly cute. What looks like a spider are actually the chick’s feathers. The chicks will become MUCH cuter but let’s face it, even newborn humans aren’t particularly cute (except to Mom and Dad, of course.)
Thanks for the posts. I created this thread to remind people that, regardless the problems we face, the world is still a beautiful place and well worth enjoying. When I head out into nature I'm leaving those problems behind for a while. We don't need them here, either.
(I tried posting earlier but my internet has been flaky all day.)

Heading into the nature is one of my favourite things to do . I just love listening to all the different bird songs , its just so beautiful and relaxing.

I go hiking with my family quite a lot it's better than normal holidays. I wanna climb a proper mountain but so far it's only been big hills
I've been to the peak district, lake district and the Cairngorms
A leisurely hike is one of the best ways to relax that I know. No pressure to be anywhere or do anything but enjoy the scenery.
I'd love to go to Scotland. Some of my ancestors are from the Highlands and I'm sure I'm owed a family castle somewhere. (I deserve a castle.) I thought I knew what mountains were while growing up. I learned better my first time in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

My husband is an ancestor of William Wallace(the Braveheart guy) and I'm half- Scottish so we'd love to go there too.
