Positive Focus Sunday - Exploring

These days, with everyone having to stay at home, exploration seems to have been curtailed for most people.

But you don't have to leave your house to explore something new. (Well, for the most part I didn't leave the house.)

A tomato? That's exploring?

Yes and YES!

In my garden I have several 'surprise' tomatoes. Crosses which we don't really know what they will grow out to be.

This particular tomato plant is a cross between a Cherokee Chocolate (a brown tomato) and a plum tomato and Black Krim, which is a black tomato. Right now, it looks like the shape of the tomato will be plum - like an egg-shaped tomato.

What color will come through? Brown, black, revert back to something else? Will it taste good? Only time will tell. But how much fun is it to watch something grow and see what happens. Try a new plant in your garden. Order some seeds for something different and see how it behaves in. your garden. 

Also during this time, most library systems have opened up resources to patrons. Use them. Explore a new subject. Do some genealogical research on your family. 

There are also loads of museums and parks which are offering virtual tours. Just think, 'walk' through a museum without having to deal with crowds.

So get out the proverbial magnifying glass and shovel - look and dig around. You might just be amazed at what you find.
