氣象報告說今晚的月亮會比較大也比較亮。所以, 我等着拍這兩張照片。上張不用閃光燈, 下張開閃光燈。

Hopscotch 跳房子

Let's Play Hopscotch 來玩跳房子

I saw the original picture at Pastor Julio Fonseca's IDA Gospel Blog. I just added "Hopscotch and 跳房子" to it.
It reminded me that I played this game when I was in elementary school, the fun (at that time no concret driveway or asphalt parking lot, mostly played on flat dirt ground), and about those playmates. My grandchildren will be able to play this game soon.
To refresh my memory, I researched online and found that children verywhere around the world play this game. There are variations about the drawings and rules.

在馮牧師的愛力也福音博格看到這張照片。我在原圖上加「Hopscotch 和跳房子」等字。
它讓我憶起國小時玩過這個遊戲的樂趣(當時尚無水泥地或柏油走道, 大都是在土面上畫圖來玩),也想起那些小玩伴。我的孫兒女快到會玩跳房子的年齡了。
網上看到世界各地的小孩都在玩這個遊戲。祇是地上所畫的圖和玩法規則略有變化而已。

Ganoderma Lucidum 仙芝菇

← I found this Ganoderma Lucidum mushroom under an old oak tree. Online I found these ↓ Lucidum pictures and herb supplements. Asian herb doctors believe that Lucidum is a known herb that does magic cure.
