in the beginning

Today's totem was hawk, soaring and swooping ahead of the Camry as I headed down the lane in the darkness.  He seemed to be leading me so I took the message and moved onward.  I never know who reads what that I post just that there's a lot of them and I ran into a friend today who was asking about the reconstruction.  She didn't realize that there were two projects I've been writing about.....one that my friend is doing downtown and the other at the house where my parents lived.  Both are fascinating.

Think happy thoughts and always keep the faith ^j^
