Children appreciate flowers

I just received a dozen or so CDs of Kodachrome slides which I had taken in 2000 in Siberia.  Looking at images which I haven't viewed for 11 years - but still remember like Wordsworth's "spots of time" [1] - is pretty exciting. 

For a change of pace on Realneo, I thought I could share a few of the images in the coming days. 

And by the way, why is it that children pick colorful perfumed flowers...while us adults find such fascination in, and attraction to, combative argument?
