Just finished a lovely Lake Loop ride. Now it’s time for some carbs at the Garver Feed Mill.

While this has hung over our dining table for years, sitting down to supper with the fam I found myself reading through this again and thinking how grateful I am for the diversity of friends I have in my life.

Accepting others for who they are rather than who I want them to be is incredibly liberating. If you’ve never tried it, I highly recommend it!

Today was a marvellous day for a bike ride with my son. 30 km through ear and Far Eastside Madison including lunch at Ha Long Bay, a visit to Madison’s Africa Fest (cultural event), and some berry picking (Sorbus) for Jean making later.
