It looks like this right now: This photo was taken on Saturday, but today the sunshine will make the trees look even better. We wouldn't suggest that you take a flask of brandy because that would be illegal. Photo by MaxineToo on Flickr....

You're going to have a lot better peace of mind on Nov. 5th knowing that you did something besides take a walk in the fucking park.

Tis quite pleasant today, nay?

After reading your post I packed the kid into the car and went straight over to the arboretum. Walked through the whole thing practically with the kid strapped to me. Kids fucking eat up that nature and shit. Makes me a fucking good dad and whatnot. Thanks!
