The Land of Melting Shadows

There once was a land, no further away than your imagination. A Land where the Trees’ whispers can be heard on the wind. And the squirrels chitter and chatter as they scamper to and fro amongst the branches - playing their endless game of tag.

A Land where the Brooks babble endlessly amid fern covered banks. Fish and Tadpoles play a game of Leapfrog in the clear, cool water and Turtles sunbathe nearby.

A Land where the tall Grasses sway in the breeze as if dancing to a distant tune. Wild flowers wave their petals at the busy Bees who fly by; Beckoning to them. Enticing them.

A Land where the Deer graze peacefully in the lush, green valleys. A Land where the Birds and the Faeries gather in the bushes of an evening to share the day's gossip. And the Frog serenade, with Cricket accompaniment, continues well into the night.

A Land where the morning sun melts the night into the shadows of the day. And at sunset the shadows melt into night. But there are times when the shadows melt into things best left to one’s imagination.

A Land of Melting Shadows.

Weird Wednesday ~ Weird Laws

*** Special Note *** I found a double handful of web pages with weird or dumb laws. It was extremely hard not to write post after post about some of the weird and/or dumb laws still on the books across the U.S. So I chose to share some of the weird laws for my home state of Colorado. I cannot attest to how factual this info is!

In Pueblo it is illegal to let a dandelion to grow within the city limits.
In Sterling it is illegal for Cats to run loose without having been fitted with a taillight.
Throwing missiles at cars is illegal in Alamosa.
It is unlawful in Denver to loan your vacuum cleaner to your next-door neighbor.
Boulders may not be rolled on city property in Boulder.
In Denver, the dog catcher must notify dogs of impounding by posting, for three consecutive days, a notice on a tree in the city park and along a public road running through said park.
