one fall day

I can hardly catch my breath.

My older daughter is home for the week-end and the day cannot hold enough minutes. In case you wonder how it is -- you know, when they grow up, go away, get a life, but then, for one fleeting suny fall week-end, you get them back. Home again. It's like this:

And that's just before the sun goes down. Oh, daughters.

  2. Beautiful! The rain last week encouraged the colors to come out AND saved the raspberries for yet another week. May we have an updated view of the shed, please?

    I endorse your anonymous comment policy, though I admit the misuse of the word "anonymous" is a source of irritation. "Anonymous" means no one knows who it is. If you know, then it is not anonymous.
    An anonymous source, for example, is a source that is not known to anyone. I lose this argument frequently, with people who say well usage has changed its meaning.
    I'm a holdout. Don't even get me started on the misuse of deja vu...

  3. I have a reader who signs his/her comments "bb." He/she is completely anonymous in that I haven't a clue as to who this person is. But I like knowing that it's bb again. (Or George H, for that matter.) Is there a difference between pseudo anonymity and pure anonymity? To me, yes. Is this logical? Probably not. Go figure.
