I dream’d that as I wander’d by the way
Bare winter suddenly was changed to spring,
And gentle odours led my steps astray,
Mix’d with a sound of waters murmuring
Along a shelving bank of turf, which lay
Under a copse, and hardly dared to fling
Its green arms round the bosom of the stream,
But kiss’d it and then fled, as thou mightest in dream.
I wanted to memorialize this event. (And test out images & links etc.)
Britain’s capital, no stranger to unusual events, was treated to a most unusual sight Friday: a whale swimming along the River Thames, 35 miles from the ocean.

Hmmm. The image upload gizmo in (the otherwise excellent) WordPress is a bit clunky. Why is it inserting a thumbnail-size image when I’ve uploaded (and want in my post) a full-sized picture? Did a bit of manual tinkering to make the top image (of the visiting whale) be displayed at the right scale. Glad to see that I’m not the only one who finds it irritating…
