Animals At Dusk

A few weeks ago, I decided to purchase a membership to our zoo. I love going there and the cost of the membership would pay for itself in only a few visits. This evening the zoo was open after hours for members, so I decided to go. It was a very popular event, but even […]

Marching Band

Laat year I learned that a friend’s daughter was attending the same high school that I graduated from and that most of my siblings went to. The teenager was also in the marching band. My friend shared lots of photos and videos on social media. And I saw her at their annual craft fair/fundraiser. My […]

Morning Hike

I have been doing a few things with a singles social group from the church. There is a lot of going out to lunch, which is not really a favorite thing of mine to do. I enjoy chatting with the people who go, but it costs money, and I would rather do something more active. […]

Out of Comfort Zone

Today I went to lunch with some new friends from the church. They remembered that I was going on a road trip last time I saw them and were excited to hear all about it. Once again, as I recounted the experience, I found myself very grateful and somewhat in awe of the whole undertaking. […]

T-ball

When I went for a walk this afternoon, I heard a lot of people yelling and cheering. As I went around a corner, I saw the reason for all the excitement. There was a T-ball game happening at the small ball park across the street. I stood and watched for a minute as adults were […]

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 […]

Pink Pearl

My brothers, sister and I had a wonderful 4th of July. We took turns cooking our specialty meals and making homemade ice cream. When I was on vacation, one of our stops was Lake Eerie. While we were there, I bought a packaged fresh water oyster that was promised to have a pearl inside. I […]

The Diner

My grandson has been enjoying going to some of the places he used to visit when he and his family lived here. The other day and again today I took him to an old time diner. I remember on Sundays, whoever went to church with my daughter in law’s mother would get treated to breakfast […]

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 […]

Generations

It has been very wet here in New England. I was told this weekend will be the 13th in a row that it has rained. It was nice today, however, so I took a short hike with a friend, her daughter, and her daughter’s daughter. I loved walking and talking and listening to everything the […]
