I took the day off to tend to Observatory matters. After the work was done, it was time to relax and explore. The dandelion field is in a rural area of Portage County, Ohio. The skunk cabbage patch is along the Headwaters Trail of Portage (Ohio) Park District — a rail-to-trail conversion.

Yep! It was almost unbelievable how many tiny yellow flowers were there. Strangely, it reminded me of the setting for that PBS kids' show, Teletubbies. — JG
