Mr. Jones patiently waits for Mrs. Jones...

I have to post this most hilarious sight- yesterday Rita, Juan, Katie and I were wandering around Fells Point and happened upon this:

Wild Geese

Wild Geese

by Mary Oliver

You do not have to be good. 

You do not have to walk on your knees

for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.

You only have to let the soft animal of your body

love what it loves.

Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.

Meanwhile the world goes on.

Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain

are moving across the landscapes,

over prairies and the deep trees,

the mountains and the rivers.

Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,

are heading home again.

Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,

the world offers itself to your imagination,

calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting-- 

over and over announcing your place

in the family of things.

72 degrees in January!!!

We pulled out a card table and chairs for lunch on the lawn at work yesterday... oh glorious WARM sunshine. I know its a bit of a tease and we still have most of winter in front of us- but hey! You gotta take what you can get. 

I must also proudly add that two years ago we won an honorable mention for some healthiest workplace award... (I think with a photo like this we might get more than an honorable mention this year. =-)
