These trees, like sentinels along the shoreline. There is just something about their stark outlines against that gorgeous sky that pierced my soul, pal. Beautiful!

Looks like you’re seeing the brightness coming… Being in the moment versus chaining any to me? Remember that we go with you fully and with great care when you’re going through the other stuff!

I think it means you will write two bestsellers…and maybe it means that Eric will be getting married just after Rachel gets married and maybe Susan will make two wonderful desserts and you will have a taste of both!
