195/365: "Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit." ~ Aristotle

4 images in notes above!! :)

Today was Steve's Sunday Brunch Ride, and we rode our bikes from our home around a beautiful valley nearby, and stopped at the lovely Touvelle Park on the Rogue River. After eating lunch, I wandered around taking pictures and was very surprised when I found a PLUM TREE growing next to the bank! AMAZING! (Thanks to Leapfrog Art for helping to point me in the right direction on identifying the species, I found a page about these plums here: Stringer's Orchard: Pacific Plum)

Aristotle (384 BC – 322 BC)was a Greek philosopher and polymath, a student of Plato and teacher of Alexander the Great. His writings cover many subjects, including physics, metaphysics, poetry, theater, music, logic, rhetoric, linguistics, politics, government, ethics, biology, and zoology. Together with Plato and Socrates (Plato's teacher), Aristotle is one of the most important founding figures in Western philosophy. Aristotle's writings were the first to create a comprehensive system of Western philosophy, encompassing morality, aesthetics, logic, science, politics, and metaphysics. Wikipedia: Aristotle
