Today's Quote
“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..." - Kerouac

Pimp This or Monsieur Dickwad du Jour

Moonflowers & Morning Glories

I've dabbled in gardening during my life, but this year I've gone full tilt (boogie) in the flower garden. I'm almost at the phase where you can sit down in your garden and say your first, "ahhhhhhh".
