After getting stung a couple of times, my guy found this large hornet nest
in one of the trees in the yard. The plan is to set it on fire at night
when they're all in it. I sure hope it works without his getting stung
again.

He has been crabby.

Today we had a staff retreat at work and we toured The Arboretum at Penn
State. It's an absolutely glorious space. This was one of my favorite spots
- the lotus pool. Apparently they dye it with black vegetable dye so that
the lily pads on the top really "pop" against the black. It was absolutely
gorgeous.

Some days it feels like my sanity is tattered and hanging in the balance --
just like this leaf.

It is just impossible to capture the magic of this place.. how huge the
trees are.. how great everything is.. we had the perfect day hiking along
the hoh river trail..i would come out here every weekend if i could! I feel
blessed that i found it and make it out at least once or twice a year.. it
is always so special!
