I know for a fact that you would ~love~ the Erie Canal. :-) It is made of fun and pretty. And Rice Krispies.

That favorite field of mine will be FULL of tall waving wheat by the end of August. It'll be an impossible shade of gold and it'll look like the ocean with wave after wave chasing across it. And it'll say "Shhhh..." if you listen to it closely. I stop there every time, to listen.

OMG...Re: Southern Copperhead...you must be psychic! Just wait til you see this mask! :-)
