Between the Palms and the Plane

Ironically, this was taken on the nicest day of a recent holiday in Fuerteventura. A cold wind from the north blew across the island for the previous week, keeping temperatures down and contributing to a couple of rain showers. The island benefited from it with wild flowers and grass growing on the hills and fields where moisture was trapped.

Castillo Caleta de Fuste lies in the approach to the airport, so it’s not unusual to hear the roar of a jet engine overhead multiple times a day.

In the background is the prominent CHINA SHOP, selling the usual assortment of trinkets, souvenirs, bags and all sorts of other goods. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind having a single shop in Cork that carried the variety of goods they had.

This was a few minutes before I got the photo of the two lovely ladies I shared a few days ago.

DEI Dancers - MYRTLE
Meet MYRTLE, the Miserable. Specializing in doom and gloom, nothing gives her greater pleasure than the impending end of the world. Please do not try to cheer her up - that will make her feel worse. Share your own tales of woe though and she is the absolute best rainy-day friend! We all need one of those, don't we? Remember, Misery Loves Company! :-)

On a bright white background, stands a body with hands hanging. In place of a head, sits a dark bluish gray storm cloud. A bright yellow lightening bolt  shoots out, while cold gray rain puddles at her feet. She is miserable - just the way she likes it.Full "DEI Dancers" PosterCoffee/Tea MugClock

It seems that US need bigger over-night loans, which means that either

1. their day-to-day business has become increasingly unpredictable (scary)

2. they aren't even bothering to pro-actively maintain their reserve requirements (scary)

Should this not be front page news?

An early morning storm creeps over the hills while a lone tree stands in defiance on a hill.
