Rainy Season

"My favorite weather is bird-chirping weather." - Terri Guillemets


There is a eucalyptus tree outside of our bedroom window. It's a tall tree; it rises higher than our five story apartment building. The trunk is slender and smooth. Only near its top do the branches point out in all directions sprouting thin green leaves at its tips. Generally speaking it is a very aesthetically pleasing piece of nature. The sort of thing struggling poets seek inspiration. This tree may be responsible for inspiring the next great ballad of our time, but it is also home to a flock of birds. Being generous, I would estimate the flock to include approximately one hundred birds.

Planking and the Pinnacles

This past month has been very busy for Steph and I. I'm sure we've lost a large percentage of our audience due to our blogging tardiness. So without further ado, it is my pleasure to announce that we're back! Now, there's an entire month of news to share, so I shall start from the beginning; a very appropriate place to start.
