I am grateful for the ferry trip home. If you can ever be on the ferry while the sun is going down, make that happen. It’s purty. There was a bit of rain coming down, and we saw the most brilliant rainbows I have ever laid my eyes on.

I am grateful for Farley’s company on a few hours worth of errands today.
