Three Things I Saw On My Way Home That Made Me Happy:
1) A very young volunteer oak sapling carefully protected from lawn mowers by a tomato cage.
2) Dozens of graves at the Lutheran cemetery that had been planted with petunias. Magenta petunias. Or deep purple. But always either magenta or deep purple, never both together. Why so many all a mass of magenta or deep purple petunias right at the base of the headstone? I can but speculate. (My speculation involves a community group project and a garden center sale. ...my speculation is boring. But sincere.)
3) Three mourning doves on a wire. The first dove faced right. The second dove faced left. The third dove faced right. Mourning doves like to sit this way, when they sit in groups, and it never fails to get me to crack a smile.
