More FLOWERS!

The magnolia tress that i saved are still alive and one of them is actually blooming! It makes me happy and they smell wonderfull.

So, as I sat in traffic yesterday, i got to thinking. Why does traffic originally going 70 MPH in two lanes slow down to 5 MPH when it gets turned into one lane and goes through construction? Is it the fault of those people who dont merge until the very end? Or is it just that people are trying to look over and see the dang asphalt machine? Maybe they are interested in what it feels like to be only moving at 5 MPH, like that guy on the giant flattener machine. Either way...it makes me angry. Now, I dont really get angry about much, but for some reason this just gets under my skin. I dont know why, but i'll think about it and get back to you.

Less than 9 weeks until I am done with Habitat and I either become an Engineer (i know, it just might be crazy enough to work) or I go somewhere (maybe MO) to burn the forest with TNC. We'll see.

Happy Birthday.
