from tiny acorns grow mighty oaks

i remember a poster from long ago of two young children, a boy and a girl, both looking into the little boy's shorts with that inscription -- from tiny acorn grow mighty oak. rather flippant which i think in today's 'delicate' society would raise a lot of protestation.

been unbelievably busy and i had to work at the office today due to two medical appointments right near the office. hopefully, i shall be able to start catching up again tomorrow.

goodnight you beautiful folks!

update: here's an old murphy brown episode on political correctness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3pzu73I68I

tagging this for week 37 of the 52 capture challenge, the theme is 'the great outdoors'. wendy's farmhouse is surrounded by trees and farms and just outside the bedroom window where i stayed are oak trees, something we don't have in the city. well, at least not from the 22nd floor of my apartment unit!

I know that is the saying - but once I was an acorn and I'm not even recognised now!

I remember that cartoon drawing and it wasn't talking about trees. LOL! Nice capture.

Great Composition to your photo! I don’t know that I have ever seen green acorns before!

Thanks for the link! It was such a funny show and I have never seen that before.

I have never seen acorn at this early stage. They are beautiful.

I'm not sure that anyone would blink an eye at those shorts these days.
