This is my look exactly "Are we crazy?!" as we abandoned are oven home to shades of cool green. Zander and I were both grumpy old men. Especially, him. He had a rough week at work and couldn't shake it, not quite yet. Two weary parents packing up and leaving feels ridiculously hard. When we arrive at Junipine, Ender finally caught on that we were tired and he reacted most annoyingly. It was my turn to take the high road and let Zander go for a walk. Meanwhile Ender and I hunted tigers, climbed "mountains", and watched the Berenstein Bears.
When Zander returned from his walk, you'd think he met Jesus on the road to Damascus. He was a new man. He did, indeed, walk with God, but then he mentioned something about an herb... say what?! that apparently took his migraine pain away. Um... lets just say the rest of our vacation was
groooovy. :)
No, he didn't smoke this herb. In fact, I think it was just a random creek plant he rubbed between his fingers and smelled the fragrance. However, now our fall garden is going to be stuffed with medicinal herbs. Zander suffers from migraines and he wants to lower his Ibuprofen intake.
It just seems like the two of us basking in solitaire and love. Really, a healthy dose of our family is also meandering around the orchard. This explains why Cora and I are so happy. To spend the golden hour with living, breathing treasures who on the majority justify picking peaches and apples when in the back of their minds they know better. Its one of those gray areas in life where we seem to find some color.
