Mary and a Boojum

Went over to sniff the Stanford Cactus Garden with Mary and Alice yesterday. Mary is in town to help a friend who had surgery to rebuild a heart destroyed by Marfan's disease. Mary looked at the Boojum trunk at the Garden and told Alice that's what happened to her friend's heart.
Alice introduced Mary to Peet's Coffee and to all the dogs and people at our closest Peet's. I think Mary was glad to get out of the hospital and under the Sun for a while. I hope her friend gets to see the Sun, too, soon.
