Gratuitous Daffodils

I wrote a couple of days ago about the great flowers along the Daffodil Trail. I though that I would just include a few of the pictures so that you can get an idea of what it looks like.

Daffodil Trail

There is a trail in Richfield, Ohio that is part of the Metro Parks, Serving Summit County (yes, that is the name…) called the Daffodil Trail. As you might imagine by the name of the trail, thousands of daffodils bloom along its path in the springtime. They are at the peak of their bloom right now. I guess that it is a little later than normal, but I’m ok with that, since the weather is so cooperative right now!

We walked its length yesterday along with our dog. I am a bit nostalgic about that – Spike (the dog) just turned 11 years old last week, and this was the very first trail that we brought her to back then. She was a tiny, tiny abandoned pup that we adopted those many years ago, so small that she could barely walk. It is hard to believe that so many years have gone by already!

Back to the flowers. They were amazing; I have seen lots of daffodils, but there were several kinds that I had never seen before – like these spiky ones.

Paypal Alternate!

I ran across this today: Revolution Money Exchange (RME). It is similar to Paypal; you can transfer money to friends but there are no fees. They are positioning themselves for use on social networks, but I have noticed that some Etsy sellers are using it.

Here is the institution which holds the accounts: Account issued by First Bank & Trust, Brookings, SD, Member FDIC and part of the Fishback Financial Corporation.

Maybe this is old news, but I had not heard of it until now. Being one to follow the herd (ha!), I signed up

What do you think?  Will they give Paypal a run for their money?
