There’s a strong biblical connection between people and trees. They both come from dirt. They’re both told to bear fruit. In fact, arboreal language is so often applied to humans that it’s easy to miss, whether we're talking about family trees, passing along our seed, cutting someone off...

My Grandparents’ Garden A Poetry Collection by William R. Cavins Some gardens are planned. Others are lived. In My Grandparents’ Garden, William R. Cavins returns to the place that shaped him: a modest backyard where tomatoes leaned heavy on their stakes, marigolds blazed between vegetable rows, and lilacs perfumed the far corner each spring. It was not a garden of fashion or symmetry, but of patience, steadiness, and quiet love. Through vivid, sensory poetry, Cavins captures the textures of soil pressed by careful hands, the rustle of corn in summer wind, the weight of potatoes lifted ...

This is an old guide book first published in 2017 and a lot has changed at Busch Gardens since then! While many interesting tidbits can still be found in the book, I don't recommend using this for planning your trip. Rather, I am leaving this guide available on Amazon for all the Busch Gardens nerds I have met over the years who would still very much enjoy the contents of this book, as it gives a very clear snapshot of Busch Gardens as it was in the 2017 season. Enjoy, fellow Busch Gardens nerds! And I hope to see all of you out at the park, as I am still regular there!

Robert Louis Stevenson, Scottish essayist, poet, and author of fiction and travel books, was born in 1850 in Edinburgh, Scotland, as an only son of a prosperous civil engineer. He entered the University of Edinburgh at the age of 17 and studied to be an engineer to follow his father in the family business; however, he soon realized that he was not cut out for that profession. His father agreed to let him study law instead and although Stevenson graduated from the law school, he never practiced law because, by then, he knew he wanted to be a writer.

A good Christian boy sits in church, listening to a sermon that tells him people like him are outside God’s design. Then he looks up.
