And of course, I love it! Good to hear from you.<br /><br />No, Cranky Crone, you are not the only one who feels this way. But don't you wish there were more folks who did, who were able to find happiness from what lies around us? I think the world would be a more peaceful place if they did.<br /><br />arun, what a pleasure to make your acquaintance! Thanks for stopping by to leave your kind comment.<br /><br />Raining Iguanas, I hope someday we will surprise one another crossing paths, since we find joy in many of the same places. Aren't we lucky to live among such splendor?<br /><br />Hi Ellen, I agree that that horse deserved a good pat, and he acted as if he wanted one, too, except that electric fence made him shy away from getting too close to it. But the pair did follow me as I walked along the fenceline, and responded pleasantly when I talked with them.<br /><br />asita, you said it! Happy, indeed!<br /><br />Greetings to you, hikeagiant, and thanks for stopping by. Yes, we can have Herb Robert and ice on the same day, and often do. I have seen it blooming among the stones of a rock wall that had snow on top. Regarding the Pixie Cups, there are a number of Cladonia lichens that go by that name, some of which can only be told apart by chemical tests. But all have that tiny goblet shape to their fruiting bodies.
