I was something that lay under the sun and felt it,
like the pumpkins, and I did not want to be anything
more. I was entirely happy. Perhaps we feel like
that when we die and become a part of something
entire, whether it is sun and air, or goodness and
knowledge.

what a lovely picture. can i tell you "synchronisticly" that i was thinking about these pictures, not the visit, but pictures recently? strange, but that was such an awesome time.
this tree swing was my most-favorite and prized possession. when it came down after high school i was deeply saddened.
ps. if you have any more pictures of my beloved little blue house, i would appreciate copying them.
:O)
that visit was so fun. it was SUCH a long time ago though, or so it seems.
