Some people like to be goofy; I am one of them. As I have noted in almost every weekly blog recently, it is difficult to write something timely that is not depressing (Ukraine, Omicron, Climate Change, etc.), or frivolous (my hair color, bad drivers, people who sniff repeatedly). I was fresh out of blog ideas until I looked through some of the photos I have taken around the world and realized that I know goofy when I see it and it’s goofy that I go for every time.
