In short I am not a fan of systems without people or those where you you have to jump through hoops in order to get to a person. I want to make an airline reservation. It hasn't been possible all day and I won't do it online, I have been burned. For those of you who believe in people as I do, it

I am thinking about my next journey to a place I have never been but always wanted to see. It is complicated and takes a lot of time to work on airline plans and pricing. I have many calls to make to see if I can coordinate my group travel with an excursion I need to take to make the trip viable.

I think there is a family of fox living across the street from me. I see one almost everyday and often in my front yard. I think the one I see is out foraging for the family. He is bold and brave and comfortable in his skin. This morning I caught a glimpse of him just chilling early in the grass
