PostPosted: Mar 24, 2020 14:15    Post subject: Stay at home - Coronavirus / Covid-19 - I like plants  

Eleventh day, Tuesday March 24, 2020 in Barcelona

We see that CV-19 has a strange (irregular) conduct in Europe where the number of infected people and victims continues to rise with contradictory but almost always bad news and in the USA it seems that it is beginning to impact strongly.
I consider that I have already done enough broadcasting work and that I have warned all the minsurfers, both Spanish-speakers and English-speakers of everything I have been able to do and know.

At this point, as I was not born as a prophet and in order not to continue circulating inside a dark tunnel without lights, I am going to change the subject and from now on I am going to talk in this thread about beautiful things that interest me and/or excite me.

Like many other minsurfers I like plants.

And since plants are pollinated by insects, why not a few butterflies. These were taken last year in our backyard garden.

Some shots taken in the Río Claro Canyon Nature Reserve, in Antioquia 150 km from Medellín.

Exuberant nature.

PostPosted: Mar 25, 2020 05:14    Post subject: Re: Stay at home - Coronavirus / Covid-19  

Two of my employees are affected by the virus. They are ok.

I met one yesterday morning but with a 3 meter distance before he knows it.

We have neighbors on our street who are also affected.

It is coming close

Even if you live in a remote area, you could be affected sooner or later.
Stay safe at home

Tribute to my wife who, to avoid going to the supermarket several times a week, went on foot with a backpack, a wheeled bag and another bag to make the purchases necessary to be able to stay confined at home.

Love you.

Stay at home and keep safe.

Río Claro Canyon Nature Reserve.


Rocks are like the skeleton of Earth, if you scratch or hit them you make a wound that can cause their destruction.
