Realism - more than Patriotism (2 Viewers)

... age-old stories involving people and animal spirits are wonderful to me ... they speak to an ancient part of our past .. as human animals.

Thank you, Shin, but I am a realist. Look at my hands ... arthritic ... terrible circulation, no true feeling. But .. life can keep you young, if you accept it.
Saw deer twice yesterday ... the second time a pair raced just ahead of the ATV on the packed trail for about 20 yards.
Bought the yearly maple syrup supply from my harvester-dealer. :)

August 2. High 22, low 14. Torrential thunderstorm swept through over night.
It has been a hot dry summer but we have received 'just enough' rain - on a just-in-time delivery basis :-)
Rocket came up with me and came home again. Watched a very red deer - female two-year old - browse at the bottom of the drive.

I enjoyed the companionship of my niece Emily's 11 year-old son, Maiko. He is very competent and has been to RiverBend several times before but never in summer .... but after a 15 hour day I was wiped and feeling it in the muscles this morning
