It's Earth Day!  And I may not be too much of a tree hugger but it does make me happy to think about the beauty of nature, and I hope that we are taking care of it as best we can.  On my way to work, I loved this field of dandelions so much that I doubled back, was almost late to work, laid amongst dandelions to take photos, and got the evil eye from a kindergarten teacher (I may have parked in the elementary school parking lot).  They may be considered weeds, but what kid hasn't made a bouquet of dandelions for their mom?  I wanted to lay in that field of dandelions all day, soaking up the sun, and thinking about the carefreeness of being young.  I'm grateful for sweet, childhood memories.
