I’ll admit, it’s incredibly lovey.

No not really. Just a few different things about them. I use Windows OS and MS365 and Google so mine is a lot like a PC. But it has been effectively operable more consistently and for longer than any non-Mac laptop I’ve had.

Many trips to/from San Juan Island on the Klickitat and Kaleetan in my youth. Still a favorite adventure when I get back there.

Edible flowers are such a nice touch. They brighten up the garden and the table 🌸 Foraging and gardens are going to become more popular and important if produce becomes more scarce. Fortunately, I can grow lettuce and rosemary. That should make for good eating!

Those temperamental tomatoes. I keep wanting to grow some but don’t have enough direct sunlight. Life in the woods is beautiful but limits some of the goodies I can grow.
