Wonderful! Summer this year filled with enticing planets gracing our Southern California skies. I live in a forest at 6,000′, and between bright red Mars above the Eastern horizon and brilliant Venus to the West, it’s been a beauty. Riding (galloping!!!) horses through our woods. Driving my horse, Laddie, in carriage, like your wistful photo:)) Watermelon and raspberries from the farmer’s market :)) White wine. And my brilliant daughter, EllaHarp (ellaharp.com) on musical tour here this past weekend :)) Enjoy! See if wild oregano oil will help with the cold, (helps me). You can get capsules (Oregamax) at Sprouts. :)) Dawn
