I'm familiar with that well water, and I can assure you that although it's tempting to sip from it, it's a bit trippy! <br /><br />Now to my garden to see if wee folks live here too:)THE SNEEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02937574663296944130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-3710556053767187352012-05-05T01:20:28.658+00:002012-05-05T01:20:28.658+00:00Hi Kelly,

Of course you saw a real bee and you have been buzzed ever since. Come dance in the woods with the wee folks and frolic with Fidelina. Or tickle a tree trunk.<br />I always knew that you understood the underlying meaning of the wee folks. And I know you realise that they are actually out there in my garden and making out under magic mushrooms. <br />Fidelina awaits you and is thankful you will be using protection. A dime bag to cover will be okay....klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-4444162734713831052012-05-05T01:13:20.528+00:002012-05-05T01:13:20.528+00:00Hey Joylene,

Otherwise, like the person in the bee outfit (I did see a giant bee, right?) I might have to dance around in the woods and... well, in my case, mate with Fidelina, the Fairy Princess... or a tree. Whichever comes first.<br /><br />Seriously though, what a wonderful message the Wee Folk inspire. Joy. Peace. Not judging a book by it's cover. And more. As usual, you have a way of blending a great lesson with some laughs and sincere feelings of peace.<br /><br />I wish you and the Wee Folk to have a dandy weekend. I promise to use protection upon finding Fidelina, too.

Jethro Tull on some LSD trip :) I couldn't work it out but did the hare find his glasses? I think my brother was a Jethro Tull fan. I will have to ask him if he's ever seen this theatrical display, it would explain a lot.

And Jethro Tull, a fusion of medieval music, meets English folk music, meets rock music. Splendid musicians and the flautist, lead singer, Ian Anderson, is right up there with the classical contemporaries.
