The woods are just trees, the trees are just wood

It's Thursday, so you know what that means. It means I disappoint bunny_hugger by interrupting the narrative of our lives together to recount the stuff posted to my humor blog the past week. For example there was all this:

• Everything There Is To Say About Pool Safety, last week's long-form nonsense essay.


• Today’s Excuse For Why I’m Running Late On Everything and the thought of being there when an influential decision is made.


• Statistics Saturday: Top Songs For Each Day Of The Week, a music guide.


• What’s Going On In Alley Oop? What’s With The Alternate-Universe Alley Oop? May – August 2019 with special guest star: Plato. Also the Labyrinth and alternate timelines.


• What I Can’t Stop Thinking About Today, with Kennywood content.


• With The Revised Rise Of Digital-Life Persons, put up when I realized what the punch line was for an otherwise cute little bit of microfiction from a couple weeks ago.


• Expanding on Few Words, just some silliness.


• Everything There Is To Say About Procrastination, this week's long-form nonsense.

I did eventually turn around, in the Bosque Tlalpan, and start walking back down the trail. I'm not sure just when in my pictures I did. But the stuff here is from that return leg.

Some building deep in the woods with a purpose I could not discern. It's apparently not being closely watched most of the time.

And a nice spot in the forest. I never would find the extent of the trail up the hill, but now you've got a good idea what it all looked like.

Local squirrel as seen from down below, close to the start of the trail.

It's possible that one of the Mexican grey squirrels has noticed me. Look at the twist on those feet.

Black squirrel also noticing me and none too happy about it.

I belive this is a different black squirrel but you can see how popular the area is. I wonder what it is attracting so many to a spot near the food stalls where people converge?

Woman disregarding the signs ordering people not to play dice with the squirrels.

Another squirrel having some fun with a peanut.

Strrrrrrretch.

One of a bank of food stalls at the entrance of the park.

Near the entrance of the park was that museum; it's devoted to local culture. Here's the stage, which I caught in-between shows.

Looking back from the stage --- see the rows of audience seating --- and looking to the paintings and pictures on both floors. I quite like the style of balconies here.

Trivia: In organizing its Arizona Territory the Confederate Congress made no provision for the territory residents to organize their own constitution; it could only frame one on applying for statehood.
