On this day in 1900, L. Frank Baum published The Wonderful Wizard of Oz destined, of course, to become a literary classic. No yellow brick road, the path through our clough is a decidedly drab brown, but the magic was just as powerful as that of the mighty Wizard in Oz.
I’ve not used the Joyspotting guide in ages so I decided to take it along today. The Cobourg Creek ecosystem is relatively limited so I had to take some creative license with my labelling. Cheers!
Look Up!
Look Down!
Keep an eye out for colour.
Follow the curve.
Go where the wild things are.
Seek out symmetry.
Search for signs of abundance.
Watch for weirdness.
Zoom in.
Notice the invisible.
Take the scenic route.
Use all your senses.
It was a glorious spring day here in Cobourg, bliss to be out enjoying it. I hope your day was every bit as lovely!
