Got a leg up on #ArborDay & put a fig tree in the backyard. Because he's a #Chicago Hardy, his name is Carl (after #CarlSandburg). Hence, he can channel some big shoulders energy and spread out. And any time the #JohnDenver "Plant a Tree" song that haunted my childhood comes into my head, I'll lob back the hard-won determination of Sandburg's "The Road and the End," emphasizing

"Where tall trees flank the way
And shoulder toward the sky."

(And yes, I *am* a huge dork.)

Someone ran the lyrics for #CountryRoads by #JohnDenver through an #AI image generator and... I don't hate it.

I feel conflicted by this. #GoodMorning #MusicBreak #MusicClub

It's #30MoreSongsChallenge time!

For boxing day, I asked ChatGPT to describe python's enumerate() in the style of John Denver.

Here it is:

Verse 1:
I had a list of things, oh so long
But I couldn't keep track, I was all alone
I needed a way to see which was first
And then I found the enumerate function, it was the best

Chorus:
Enumerate, enumerate
It's the way to organize your fate
Enumerate, enumerate
It's the answer to your list-keeping state

Verse 2:
I gave it my list, and it did its thing
It added a number to each and every thing
Now I know which is first and which is last
Thanks to enumerate, my troubles have passed

Chorus:
Enumerate, enumerate
It's the way to organize your fate
Enumerate, enumerate
It's the answer to your list-keeping state

Bridge:
With enumerate, you'll never feel lost
It's the key to keeping track, no matter the cost
So don't wait, give it a try
You'll be glad you did, by and by

Chorus:
Enumerate, enumerate
It's the way to organize your fate
Enumerate, enumerate
It's the answer to your list-keeping state

I hope you enjoy the song! Let me know if you have any questions.

My next recommendation for a fun but not too cheesy Christmas album - John Denver and the Muppets - A Christmas Together.

Here's Kermit with a Christmas Wish

Listening to holiday music and the #song #ChristmasForCowboys by #JohnDenver is on. I long for the 70's when life seemed simpler and John Denver songs were on heavy rotation on the radio. #Music

John Denver Christmas With The Muppets still holds up.
Bah-da bum bum!
