		<description><![CDATA[A spring night, hurtling all-too-quickly toward the start of summer. The leaves have just begun to fill in the barren branches of winter, the pots newly planted and looking a little sparse. It is always that way in the beginning. The artificial light casts an eerie glow to the surroundings, warmer than the moon, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Count me as one of the Cumberbitches, as I now have a very real fondness for Benedict Cumberbatch, the Hunk of the Day. He&#8217;s currently on-screen in &#8216;Star Trek: Into Darkness&#8217;, but first came to my attention with his supporting turn in &#8216;Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy&#8216;. He&#8217;s also apparently on a big sci-fi television show, [...]]]></description>

My initial concern was the plants below, but once I got up there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As often happens only when I reach the top of a twenty-foot ladder or the upper-limbs of a cherry tree, I was reminded of my fear of falling this weekend as I pruned the bejesus out of the tree seen here. (It was much higher than it appears, I swear.) It&#8217;s actually not so much [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s getting more and more rare to find a real Renaissance man these days, but if such a creature exists, it comes in the form of Matthew Camp. From go-go-dancer to designer, Mr. Camp has dabbled in a little bit of everything, and all of it quite well. (He&#8217;s even been featured as a Hunk [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Though the feature photograph here was actually taken in Boston a few weeks ago, I&#8217;ve noticed that several ginkgo trees have been planted on Broadway in downtown Albany this spring. It makes me quite happy, as the ginkgo is one of my favorite trees. I&#8217;d have one myself if we had the space, but these [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Curious thing, my feelings on rain. Initially, and upon first storm, I carry on and flail wildly against it, ranting and raving like a water-allergic maniac. I throw a fit and a tantrum and bring the world down around me. Then it&#8217;s over. And if the rain persists, I come to appreciate it, almost embracing [...]]]></description>

In fact, the bold beast turned around and promptly lifted its tufted butt and shook it brazenly in my direction. I opened the window and hissed, and [...]]]></description>
