On Rosh Hashonah, the Jewish New Year, here in San Miguel we held an outdoor service at the glorious botanical garden at the top of town. Right before the service started, a most amazing looking insect landed right on the cover of my prayer book. Then it sat on my knee for a long while and then moved onto my arm, shoulder and finally hopped off on to the person behind me. Later as we prepared to stand in a circle, the bug leaped into the middle. Fearing she/he would be crushed. I ran into the center, picked it up and released it into the air. As it prepared to fly, it opened its wings and I was greeted with the vision of the fiery orange color on the underside of its wings.

Sallie, thanks for this blog. I know I will be a regular reader. The weather is starting to get cool here in Charm City and the leaves are turning. Hope you have a wonderful birthday and I look forward to hearing about whether you have a celebration in SMA. Wish I could be there!
