dear tds, your idea of 'hot' is funnier than mine. haydn? yes, he was a hot composer alright. (*thinks about springtime in philadelphia and the animals proliferating in the country. it's cute to see a gaggle of geese, or fawns, little bunnies, we have it all). it's extremely beautiful here. everything is muti-shades of green - with contrasts from various fruit trees and all. people like to garden here - so there is a lot of color everywhere.
