How Could I Say No?
It was a beautiful day. We had breakfast, cajun style, followed by a trip to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens where we saw, among other things, 3 little birds in the orchid house.

The afternoon ended at a blue Medusa fountain.

And while this hand may look wrinkly and 30-some-odd years old, my heart feels young.

How could I say no?
