Stay right here

"Hello, world?"

Are you cold there by the window? I can go get a poly cover for you.

"Nahhh, we wanna seee!"



"So, can we, like, go in the ground yet?"

Maybe. You do know it's hailing out there, right? And that an hour or two ago there was a snow flurry?

"We'll be good, we prooooomise!"

Well ... let me go get my jacket. But you peppers and tomatoes had better stay right here.

  6. Sure do. As a rookie, I rode up to Detroit Lakes with Smitty. He told me all about myself via astrological breakdown. If I remember right, he carried a piano in his rig. I live in UP Michigan now where I've taught Sp. Ed. the last 30 yrs.
