Ever Loving
Today I got together with a friend. We hadn’t seen each other in several months and she was eager to hear about my road trip. I started with the highlights of the places we visited such as Mount Rushmore, a renovated opera house in Nebraska, the antique shop in Missouri, Lake Eerie, Maine, and such. […]
Rainy Camping
Tonight my brother and I were invited to our neighbor’s for dinner. She wanted to have an outside picnic. The weather was questionable, but seemed ok when we sat at the outside tables. It did start sprinkling on the guys, so we had to rearrange a bit. We got to talking about camping in the […]
Healthy Plants
This morning one brother and my sister said goodbye and went back to their places. I was grateful for the time we all spent together. Later, I got a call from my son who unexpectedly invited us over for dinner. He has a smoker and was cooking a large amount of pulled pork to share. […]
Enjoying Outdoors
The same day I returned from my trip, my brother arrived for a visit. We have been going out and about, enjoying the summer weather and scenery, and having fun. We have gone on a hike, went to the zoo, and went to lunch at our favorite German restaurant. We reminisced about visiting the same […]
Trip Reflection
I have missed my weekly Zoom meetings with my siblings for several weeks now since I was traveling. So, I was happy to connect with them today. I told them a couple of stories about the trip. I also visited a neighbor and told them a couple of stories too. Talking about the road trip […]
Beauty All Around
Today my grandson and I made it to the flatlands. We noticed the difference in environment and scenery. Even though it was still hot, it wasn’t as humid, so the air felt different too. As I drove, I thought about the beautiful world we live in. We only went through part of the country and […]
Blessed Detours
My grandson and I had another beautiful and hot drive today. First we drove around and looked at some places in NC that his family is interested in. In one town, he said a friend of his from NH had moved there. He texted her while we drove randomly. We ended up stopping in a […]
Retreat Day
Today felt like a little retreat. I took a break from visiting and spent much of the day by myself. The weather was beautiful, so I enjoyed a couple walks and took some pictures. I sat outside, took in a beautiful view, and soaked in the sunshine. I was grateful for the peaceful, relaxing day. […]
Strawberry Picking
One of the things I missed most about the east coast was the fresh produce. I used to go to farms and pick strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, apples, and pumpkins. It was always fun and delicious. Today a friend was going strawberry picking and invited me to go. I was thrilled. It has been so rainy, […]
Fun in the Sun
I was blessed with another beach day today. This one was with a friend and her granddaughter. Since it was a warm sunny day, there were a lot of people who had the same idea. Thankfully, the beach itself didn’t really feel crowded. It was fun to watch the little girl run in and out […]
