Alright, I'm done whining.

Hi.

Our cute little house with two feathered friends on a visit from the park across the street. We live up the staircase to the left, in the top level.

The picture doesn't do it justice, but the sunsets are beautiful here. You know how in classes that teach stress relief and meditation they tell you to find your happy place? Well, I went for a run early this morning on the trail that surrounds the perimeter of this park and I absolutely found it. Calm, gorgeous, and filled with all of these wonderful honeysuckle bushes that make the air smell so sweet. Ahh.


The other night we walked over to feed the ducks and geese and within minutes it was like a scene out of Hitchcock's The Birds. I found myself glancing around, looking for a hole in the crowd to make our escape should the bread run out too soon.

Taking time to smell some lilacs. We've been taking lots of nature walks lately and Reese's favorites have undoubtedly been:

1- Puppies out on a walk with their owners

2- Rocks

3- Geese

Despite their running away from her and the occasional hiss and hard flap of the wings when she gets too close to them and their babies, Reese is convinced that they love her just as much as she does them.

4- Sticks

Our landlord's shepherd retriever couldn't be more thrilled when she throws them to her, but somehow the geese couldn't care less.

Snobby birds.
