honestly, friends - you just cannot go wrong spending the day under the sun... and dark clouds.... and rain.... digging and crushing and prodding and whispering among your herbs.
cannot go wrong, I tell you.  : )

And the cosmos are in.

Madd got to go on a date to the library with her Daddy.
Cool.

 Now today will be "inside"!

Life rolls along....
