There is fun to be had in the simplest things, and Monkey knows how to catch himself some. He can grab onto a thistle – (careful not to snare a thorny bit!) and pull himself up and onto the perfect seat for a ride. He’s got a good view and good rhythm too, as the wind bounces him energetically, like the old time dime mechanical horse rides in front of grocery stores, back in the day.

Monkey is not embarrassed. He’s not shy. He’s not looking to see who’s looking. He’s in it only for the moment of fun. Monkey says, “You!  Grab the fun you can when fun comes along. It is never guaranteed to come back ’round.”

Please come back tomorrow for a new “Weed Image of the Day” and let me know which ones you like. We and our weeds are so much more than what we first appear to be.
