Taking a break
While awaiting the next storm to test yesterday's leak repair effort I managed to get out and get a few pictures of the lush growth this year. The ground is now so wet I can't even get on it with my tractor to do some of the maintenance projects I want to accomplish this summer.

That Ideas Should Freely Spread
If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it. Its peculiar character, too, is that no one possesses the less, because every other possesses the whole of it. He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
