Particularly when one is pinged on the back of the head!

What heavenly color - almost worth being pinged just to have that wonderful color.

I'd be out there lying on a rug all day, looking up into the tree. Wait, you do that too?

Cookie, the ground is hard, slimy with vegetable matter and crawling with insects. I sit in a chair ;)
