Anniversary acorns

This morning, I did a very early run from the Eaton Canyon Preserve parking lot to the top of the Winter Creek trail on Mt. Wilson; it's a solid 15-16 miles.  (First half all uphill, second half, all down).  I got a bit altitude sick, even though I turned around at about 5000 feet elevation.  I start to get light-headed at a mile high, which makes me quite a "lightweight" in the eyes of my friends.  I ran alone, always a questionable decision in the mountains, and it was very hot even at dawn.  I could feel the arriving humidity from Hurricane John as I climbed towards the summit.

But I don't blog on a Sunday to share details of the run.  On my ascent I noticed these two spectacular and very large acorns, still on the branch, lying on the trail directly in front of me.  (Click to enlarge the picture.)

I brought them home for my wife.  Tomorrow, September 4, is our first wedding anniversary; it has been a joyous, challenging, remarkable year.  I am blessed beyond all measure and beyond deserving.  The acorns will go on our bedside table.

You live by Eaton Canyon? LUCKY! I hike there a lot with Jeremy, though the trail was blocked for awhile. :-( Those acorns are adorable! And happy anniversary!!!!!

what symbolism- what a WONDERFUL thing to find on the trail in front of you on your first anniversary! besides being lovely to look at, the acorn is represents potentiality and patience. it should become the personal talisman of your union. there's great beauty in those two clinging to the same branch- so naturally touching.

congratulations to you two.

best wishes,
karen

Happy anniversary, Hugo. Acorns are much more fitting than paper by any standard.

I have recently applied for a new credit card for good credit history and I was very surprised to learn that they offer an additional one which I can give to anyone I like - my relative or friend. As my daughter has just achieved the age right for credit card, I presented her the additional one. If you are looking for good credit cards for you and your relatives, you can find them at

It is absolutely obvious that young people have very little knowledge of personal finance. Even some of the college students think that the money from credit cards is free. And not only young people are ignorant about credit cards. The best way for them to choose the right credit card is read the details. There is a great site to compare credit card offers

There are so many credit card offers that it is always hard to choose. I would say that there are no bad or good credit cards, there are just credit cards that are bad or good for you. In order to understand which card is which you should consider your spending habits, your credit history and compare credit card offers from different banks and issuing companies. You can do that at

Hi! I'm in the process of trying to find a good credit card to rebuild my credit, and I was wondering is there one with no monthly fees. My credit is not great but not bad. I have found one site but I am not sure whether those credit cards suit me or not. Can you help me. Thank you.

Hello and best regards. I was under 17 when I started working, and I had to ask parents for money when I wanted to buy a computer or car. But when I turned 18 there was still no chance of getting vast credit limit, and I had to apply for a secured credit card first. I used the information and application forms at
my tribute credit card.com

[facreditlso]

- look, they say you are welcome at the site. I went there and applied for a credit card. What happened you think? The form didn't come out! I wonder who designs such sites! Hi 2 all :)

How come the symbolic acorn article brought a topic of credit card? A little bit confusing..
