Daisy absolutely loves fall. The crisp air, swirling with yellow and orange leaves fills her with uncontainable joy—like knowing that someone loves you just because you are you.

So this drama is happening while I’m eating my lunch…

After the sleepover at our house, Daisy was eager to investigate which combination of pillow and blanket was most relaxing. This is just 2 of several investigations carried out in short order. She’s a dedicated scientist, really.

It’s the age old story—folks on shore envy the people on the yacht, sailing around the coast in a floating mansion. The folks on the yacht envy the people on shore, writing philosophy and readying the Odyssey by the untroubled blue blue bay.
