"An Ardent Admirer"

ardentadmirer.jpg
On our way down to Portland this weekend, we stopped at the Hulda Klager Lilac Gardens in Woodland, Washington.

The grounds were nice, the lilacs pretty, but it was the history found within the old farmhouse we found most interesting. Specifically, a yearbook we believe belonged to Hulda's daughter. We're not sure we were supposed to touch it, much less thumb through it, but we couldn't help ourselves.

When we came upon this message (above photo), we smiled, felt that nice warm feeling spread through our chest and shoulders.

For those who can't make it out, it reads, "Here's to the one thing you have the most of. Beauty. An ardent admirer, Don Keith."

"You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you..." WOOT, Darcy! I have always wanted to be ardently admired and loved. Hulda's daughter was one lucky dame. Way to snoop!
