Awww, thanks! Wishing you a "beaver" of your own -- a beautiful sunset, a good song on the radio, a break in the clouds, however she appears to you -- this weekend. :)

The tone and cadence of this really made me feel your sense of easy distraction. I have ADHD and get distracted by squirrels or beavers easily and forget stuff too, so this resonated. But we get to see the beavers. And sometimes clumps of mud are territory markers left by beavers! I'll write about that this weekend. I learned that doing trail work in the Pine Barrens. And saw a beaver skeleton. But no live ones.

You know, I’ve considered recently whether I might have ADD (or maybe ADHD) too. Yeah, sometimes (definitely not always, but sometimes) my weaknesses can become my superpowers. (I feel like that’s a martial arts kind of feeling?) That’s really interesting about the clumps of mud & beaver territory markers -- I can’t wait to read about the rest of your trail work this weekend.
