Wit, Wisdom, & Rain


"On a day when I had wanted to work outside, had bought garden seeds and made plans, I woke up to rain - slow, steady, drippy, soaking rain. It's hard not to be disappointed. But the weather is nature's way of reminding me who is in charge, who makes the big decisions. The rain put me in my place."

Good quote - and I love the photo - who knew gardening tools were little individual sculptures all their own?

It's good the rain stopped me, Susan. We're supposed to get flurries tonight!
