Glowing Discovery

Recently marine biologist and National Geographic explorer David Gruber, discovered bioflourescent reptiles in the coral reefs off the Solomon Islands.

Gruber was on a crocodile hunt one night when he saw out of nowhere this fluorescent turtle. “It looked like a big spaceship gliding into view, an alien craft with a patchwork of neon green and red all over its head and body.”

This gives a whole new meaning to “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.” Here’s a YouTube video of Gruber’s glowing discovery:

Patient and Strong

“In my experience, men who respond to good fortune
with modesty and kindness are harder to find than
those who face adversity with courage.
For in the very nature of things, success tends
to create pride and blindness in the hearts of men,
while suffering teaches them to be patient and strong.”
Xenophon

“And indeed, a horse who bears himself proudly is a thing of such beauty
and astonishment that he attracts the eyes of all beholders.
No one will tire of looking at him as long as
he will display himself in his splendor.”
Xenophon


The Sea Meets The Sunset

We rode for hours. Riding through the wild oat fields with oats as tall as the hocks of our horses legs. The smell of the wild oats and lavender lingering in the air as we rode.

We rode through the eucalyptus woods so thick with trees, they covered the trail to the sky. The strong minty, pine, honey scent of eucalyptus lingered as we left the woods.

We rode as the sun began to set. The salty air of the sea drawing us near to the sea, wading through the low tide where the sea meets the sunset.
