Giant boulders of rock and ice that make up Saturn’s rings look like fine threads that make up the huge rings of Saturn. Cassini’s close up shots show the fine lines of the rings beautifully.

Something crazy like that – there’s said to be loads more in the rings but they don’t count apparently.

I didn’t realise until recently with so many moons, they have been their own categories.
A wonderful thing our Solar System.

They do have categories, I think again it’s the rings that complicate it.

They are….. logging about in stacks, rows and piles. 🙂 I still need some though. At least the weather has been unbelievably warm.

That is a good thing. It will end of course!

Yes it will. Some snow storms up here are not so bad, but now and then we’ll get hit with a really big one. I hope all of this warmth isn’t leading up to a whopper.
How have you been?

To me it’s working with nature’s resources to build up the fuel needed for winter.
I know when you’re doing it year after year it gets a chore but i think i would rather do that than sit in an office ☺

I agree. It is a big build up to those long cold months. It certainly does beat office work. The cool, fresh air, wind whispering, birds singing as the blue sky takes inventory of everything, is truly what it’s all about. 🙂
