Simple joys, if not from the sky then from the garden hose




This summer has been without water. Without the ocean, without rain, without swimming (much), without dew, it seems. No moisture whatsoever.

So today we made our own, and it was amazing what a difference it makes in our spirits, just to have 'rain' falling in the middle of the day. I left Ransom to play in the backyard by himself for a while and coming back out, I couldn't help but join him in his work.
This little gardener has a lot to learn, but he's already got the right ideas... get outside, get your hands dirty (and your pants and shoes), work hard, and then sit down and play.

Can't wait for it to fall on it's own so we can really get wet...
