The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

Plum Pickers
"I know why you are only paying me a penny a plum Mama..." "...It's because there are So Many!"
Proud as can be :)
Thank you my dear boys! I know what I will be doing tomorrow ;) Making plum jam!
I once paid my children a penny for every dandelion they pulled. Ten bucks later, my yard was very thankful. But I was in awe that we had so many dandelions.
Haha! I believe it :) They made about two bucks each and the tree is still loaded. I can barely tell they picked any. They are eager to make more money but I told them they have to wait a couple days till I catch up with what they already brought me :D
