Looking at your ferry pics made me remember... Ah, the boys I met and friendships I formed (in my imagination), the stories and adventures I came up with - I love those ferries! You can be anyone for a few hours! Thanks for the flashbacks.

I really didn't read your post. At all. Becuase I read the first line and had to scroll all the way down just to tell you, "Do I know who he IS? Are you fucking kidding me? My SON-OWEN-is NAMED after him!" and that is God's honest truth. Paul Owen Meany has been like THIS with-and I mean TIGHT-since I read him at age 18 when I thought I knew everything. I have waited for EVER to have a son I could name after him. Since neither of the husbands are literate (I meant, um, literal), it took until my Steve to find a guy who would read the book and let me name the kid Owen. REally. Did I tell you yet how much I love him? and you for even knowing who he is?

The gardens look amazing, BTW, and ferries absolutely rock. I think a trip that included gardens and a ferry ride would be heaven for me! Sounds like a fun family time. Thanks for including the happy pictures!
