Coincidentally I've been thinking a lot about your section on olfactory travels recently. There are a few that take me back to moments in time (a specific paint smell, for example, will immediately transfer me to high school). It's been so on my mind that I've brought it into a short story I have been working on this week. I'll have to mention this post in the intro I think!
I related strongly to your description of olfactory travels. SO many memories are accessed by our sense of smell. In my career I was away from home traveling every week. My return would take. me back to the San Jose Airport and then I'd drive south over the Santa Cruz Mountains. As soon as I reached the top of the mountain, I would roll down the window and lean my head out and from 20 miles away I could smell the sea and know I was almost home. Home still smells like fish, salt and water weed. Thank you, J. for sharing the Waffle Hat with your readers. You are very kind.

Three, Phen Ominous as that thunder and lightning, short dispatches.
I related to all three: Did not want to splatthat fly!
Still feel the lightning when I stood in a lake and it hit the lake a mile away. 60years ago. Did you get your picture?????
