On a trip to Saint-Malo, France last week, my daughter caught this iPhone shot of the joy and chaos of a group of kitesurfers enjoying a blustery afternoon off of Plage de Rochebonne.

I recently became aware of this incident, and the surrounding "conspiracy" that the weasel somehow shifted us into an alternate reality / timeline.
It makes as much sense as anything, and the timing is totally right - 2016. Please send another weasel to fix it! 😁

From a 2017 visit to Turkmenistan: the Darvaza Crater, some "locals" in the Karakum desert, the desert, and a shot from Kunya-Urgench. (The trip was from Ashgabat to Kunya-Urgench / Daşoguz, and back). A beautiful country with some, um, "idiosyncrasies."

The weather is cooling in Paris, but there is still a lot of color! From today at Parc André Citroën in the 15th arrondissement.
