Savoring

Joan and I went forth for a little nature adventure today at Holden Arboretum in Kirtland, Ohio. Flower gardens, crab-apple groves, lily-pad-filled ponds and woodland trails make it one of my favorite places. Joan had never been there, so it was delightful to introduce Holden to a friend.

We talked a lot about the importance of savoring a peaceful afternoon in the sun -- and how we both think we deserve to become independently wealthy so we can devote huge chunks of time to activities such as this.
