Speaking of portals...
I forgot to tell y'all that I found a Faerie Door/portal thingy in the woods last weekend.

Haven't been through it yet, but that night I dreamt that I did.

Anyways... it just about 20-30 feet up from Grandmother Cedar who I've gone to visit hundreds of times.

And it's near the beginning of the 'rainforest'.
(if you come in our drive from the road, Spring Creek borders the left side of the drive. Then a couple hundred feet in you go UP a good little hill & right there at the top is Grandmother Cedar. Also... that's just about the spot where the creek SUDDENLY veers left... away from our property. There is an awesomely lush ravine on our property going down & out towards the creek.
That's the 'rainforest'.... and also where I've seen a wolf, coyote, & many deer appear from)
So... I found the doorway by noticing this GIANT sycamore branch sticking out of the brush & following it to see where it's tree was.

As I stepped into the brush I noticed that just beside the GIANT sycamore was another tree who grew straight UP for about 4 feet & then it's trunk bent over at a complete 90 degree angle to reach for the light.

Then.. I notice a whole 'patch' of sycamores just a bit further down the slope.
Someday, when the time is 'right', I will put on shoes

and wander in there.


Same thing.

The cashier at Fred's who sold me the first coffee pot & then took my return & sold me the second was TOTALLY 'asleep'. She was a potentially sweet, older lady. When I returned the first pot I says, "Remember me?"

And get NO response period.

Then the manager tells me to go get what I want & come right back. yakO...tiny store, 3 pots left to choose from... I was right back.

Had to fill out a 'return form' & when it asked 'Why?' I was returning I ask the cashier, "Can I just put on here that it is STOOPIDLY made?"

Again... BLANK stare. Not even a

or a teensy
And the funnier thing was she was telling everyone... like a robot.. "Have.. a.. nice.. evening" as they were leaving the store.
It was really, really ddo for around here.

Now in Louisville I saw 'zombies' all the time.

yakO... take 2 for Dreaded Red.
