I love that I can sprinkle some (old) turnip seeds in the loose dirt and a few months later—voila. Grateful for the gifts of the soil, sun, water.

My heart is full. A wonderful weekend outside, walking, hiking, with friends and family. And the frosting is that the turning point to berry season is here! In a month, I might be tired of it, but for now, I look forward to many hours of meditative calm as I pick many kinds of berries.
