I don't know...we are in Ironton.

What I do know is this...two of the most important lessons in reality manifested themselves the other day.

Kelsie woke up in a real bad mood...couldn't run because she was injured...and she has seasonal affective disorder (when it is grey, so often is she).

So I offered to bring the family up to my Grammy's home where I have been working in the flower garden...it has been overrun with "running grass"...in which I must dig about a foot down in order to root it out...this after she paid a person or two, who only cared to pull it up without the roots.

Kelsie and Canaan planted Pansies that Grammy bought the night before to plant in the sizable area that I had dug up earlier that day. Magnolia entertained Grammy and Aunt Connie while we worked.

So the two lessons...the dirt, and the family.

That is reality. That is enlightenment. That is beautiful.

Our clothes and flesh were dirty, but our minds, hearts, and souls were cleansed.
