i love your pics. i cant decide if b/w one looking up the olive tree is my favorite or the closeup of the olives. although the stained hands...hmm...have you ever considered a career in this sort of thing? (it could go along with our double-teaming wedding planning coordinating thing...)teehee.
miss you.
next semester we are going to talk on the phone more than ever before. just you wait. ;)
