This is what I pictured

When I began to imagine a little patio out in front, and when I was working away on the mosaic and when the rain filled up the hole and it was nothing but a mud patch and a pile of paving blocks, and then the tree fell and it seemed like we were never going to get that little patio built, I kept this picture in my mind. And it came true.

A beautiful evening in the garden. Chocolate fondue and strawberries. A fire. Marshmallows. S'mores. Moonlight, lamplight, firelight, candle light.




The first of many such evenings, I hope.
