We have taken to planting our own garden, but the dreams of having chickens and beekeeping don't quite fit in with the HOA rules ha! I'll continue to dream but this is a beautiful to reminder to live fully right where you are!Meganhttp://atozini.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2198288786583198091.post-46259350393517265832013-06-18T08:08:14.171-05:002013-06-18T08:08:14.171-05:00You are so right Mandi...why wait?
