The Garden update

I told you all how we've been rehabbing the yard this year. Toni has been working especially hard. The results, a fabulous, lush, beautiful deck and yard that is a pleasure to be in.

 
I told you, there would be a picture!

Dear Mr. Watterson




Last night I watched the documentary Dear Mr. Watterson; a film about the cartoonist responsible for Calvin and Hobbes. It was a fascinating account of the reclusive artist, who turned his back on a half a billion dollars in order to preserve the "art" he so carefully crafted.  I often read the Calvin and Hobbes books to my son, Christopher as a child, and he sights this as the reason he formed a lifetime love of books.

Calvin and Hobbes has been gone from the papers for 19 years now. (Boy has it really been that long?) But he is still fondly remembered. Thank you Bill Watterson.
