Slug Habitat

While trying to catch crickets the other day, the boys discovered several garden slugs at the base of the neighbor's windsor wall landscaping. They asked if they could keep them as pets. Strangely, the neighbor did not object to the removal of the critters from her landscaping. Below is their temporary habitat, with food and decorative flowers included.

much peace,

Let There Be ...

I was driving home early yesterday evening when the back end of a three-day cold front began to pass over the city. The buildings and trees to the east were awash in eldritch light, and to the west, beneath the long line of cloud, the setting sun blazed forth. It felt like the first time I had ever seen the sun.

much peace,
