Twenty years after E.T. landed on Earth and in Elliot’s life, NASA’s Curiosity landed on Mars. Will E.T. and The Curiosity be friends? Maybe some skittles will convince him back to Earth.

Did you know some of the forest scenes were film 300mi. north of San Francisco? (near the Oregon border) The Redwood National Park website indicates a nice fact: “Fog accounts for up to one-fourth of the precipitation needed so the mighty coast redwoods can survive. While you hike, fog drip is a good thing!” –nps.gov

Many cities around the States may be experiencing a heat wave, the last few hot days of summer in light pleasant clothes.

The foggy weather and a slight craving for skittles inspired this post today.
