today's pix

this patch of north carolina overgrowth has been a delight this spring. forsythia, azalea, now these wild roses, honeysuckle and some other thing i can't name.

and this is lela's brother, miles the courageous, who calls me "ah. ee" and blows me kisses goodbye. he wants no help ever and tries something new every day in my yard. today he mastered walking backward *down* the driveway, as i knew he eventually would.
