Those birds are gorgeous, do they speak? Like 2 yr olds? That's pretty funny. I'm unable to have contact with animals much, finishing up law school and I work full time it's about all I can do and anyways I'm apartment living in the city until I'm finished. I would love to live as you do, someday, and it is an inspiration to me to see these wonderful pictures, it looks like heaven compared to my concrete jungle, haha.

Cleanse is going well on day 7.5--I compact my spiritual experiences into the hours after 5 and sometimes at lunch, what can you do...I cannot at this time choose my preferred path, with only 1 semester to go and student loans to pay. not too many people around me are the kind of people who would even think of fasting. I'm pretty much seen as a freak of nature and no one understands why anyone would pass up a big lunch with a martini to wash it all down with. Let alone not discussing my spirituality! But, when the time is right and I can choose, I'm going to sail off into the sunset! Thanks for the perfect day!
