Found out his name is Charles. Very good kid. Definately one to keep an eye on.

He came back! I wish'd I'd been there. When you see him next, can you ask him what types of books he likes to read? Or what his hobbies are? He may have a Fairy Godmother.

I will do that. I told him about the blog and you should have seen the huge grin he had.

Yes, he did come back, and I introduced myself at the first opportunity. He is one of the most polite young men that I have ever had the pleasure to meet, and I, too, have a special desire to help him out in any way that I can. Perhaps he is going to have a godfather, too......more strange that we both felt this way immediately upon seeing him the first time!

He hung on every spoken (read) word, and every time I looked up from reading, he was just riveted to me as though he were in a trance, living the words rather than just hearing them. It was a bit, how should I say it, "magical"?

I see a bright future for this gifted young man.....he is one of the reasons that I keep coming back already, along with the young man sitting next to me, Chris, who is one of the brightest young men that I have ever met.

We will see you next week at the garden, Linda, and no meltdowns this time!!!

Thunderbird said...

Meltdowns depend on the moon and Obama's latest flip-flopping. Also Kwame, property taxes, public schools and my local and state representatives and their antics.

Also everything else.

Plymouthres said...

The moon and the politics I can do nothing about! They both ebb and flow like the tides of teh oceans, and are subject to no rationale!

The cicada are easy-just throw a saddle on em and ride em out of the garden! I can stop and rid you of them if need be. Let me know and I'll be there...by the way, what sign are you?

Thunderbird said...

I'll just avoid the plants until the damn bugs die. I know they fry out and leave their shell behind. Lobsters!! Thanks for the offer, though.

I'm a Capricorn. Why?

Plymouthres said...

Just wondered, considering I think it means something about our lot in life, so to speak, Just so we have a bit of quid-pro-quo, I am an Aquarian. I could have guessed you were a Cap, though.

Thunderbird said...

Are Capricorn's obvious?

I wonder what Cub is...

Mark Cub Covington said...

Aquarius Feb 7th.

Plymouthres said...

No, not obvious, just somewhat predictible!
