sunday collection 23

There is a walnut tree in our yard. Or, more precisely, our neighbour's yard. The branches of which reach over the fence and flop mostly into our yard. Quite possibly for this reason, we also have a mild squirrel infestation. These conditions lead to the expression of a fundamental equation to which I had not been exposed - until now:

nuts + squirrels = yard-work

I so love yard-work.

it's quite relaxing to watch the grass move ever so slightly with the wind.

m and i went to Jumping Bean late this morning for our caffeine fix. while we were there enjoying our respective cup of coffee, it started to rain pretty heavily. we tried to wait it out but the rain just wouldn't let up, so we decided to make a dash for it. plus, we didn't live all that far. we got absolutely soaked but enjoyed the walk home anyway. isn't it great how rain puddles continue to have similar effect on the grown up version of you the way it did when you were a kid?
