Still - it's a beautiful day





OK - another spring like day - as it should be -March 30th!!!  I was enjoying the Japanese garden when I discovered that once again vandals have had their way with some of the valuable treasures that we call ours -all of ours -including them.  It is up setting, sad, puzzling.  What do you think?  Why do you think that someone is inclined to damage what we all can enjoy?  I don't really get it.  Damaged - that's what some people are.
