Time to go a' gathering!

Tonight is a bright night with a nearly full moon (Wednesday). Tonight I have cancelled my Gaelic class and Mari and I will go out and gather branches of evergreens! I hope my Gaelic teacher doesn't have my blog address because "last minute school work" is technically correct, as some of the wreaths will go into the school, and certainly this is last minute. I have to question my commitment to the language if I abandon it because it is a beautiful night and the school is in want of the smell of the outside brought inside... I will console myself that the same spirit which brings out to the trees leads me to Gaelic.

Speaking of Gaelic reminds me of Scotland. Ok, so I said I liked Manitoba, and of course I do... but then, today, in class, I saw a picture of mountains. I realized that I really miss the mountains. Why couldn't there just be a big mountain in the middle of the prairies? I know there are pimples, but how about a mountain? So it looks like a visit to the nearest mountains is in my ...snif* snif* way too far away future.
