Postcards from Yesterday

Good morning. It is a beautiful day. The sun is shining; the temperature is nice. The humidity isn’t that great but the temperature is such that it somewhat mitigates the effects of the humidity. 

They had a pretty good walk on this particular day (which was Monday, the 12th).

I started to write yesterday but got interrupted by Amena and her need to go to Walmart before they opened and then Tops to see if they had what she needed and then back to Walmart. Then it was off to Hardwick and by the time I got home, it was time to start school for the boys and the day was such that nothing more in the way of journal writing or blog posting was accomplished.

Joseph counted over fifty mushrooms.

Some were quite colorful.

Some were like funnels.

Other than a fairly nice drive to Hardwick, a nice outing with Joseph, and an okay day of school for Seth and Joseph, the day was crap. Glad it’s over and cannot be revisited other than in my mind because that’s bad enough.

And, as usual, there were some interesting trees. We'd already planted the letterbox we'd gone to plant or it might have ended up in this tree.

Today is a new day. You know, Postcards from the Past is one of my favorite songs. You should listen to it sometime if you aren’t familiar with it. It’s very applicable.

I guess if people really are allergic to goldenrod this would not be a good place to go for a walk. It was very pretty and a bit on the warm side.

Anyway, today. Today is an early release day. Amena has driver’s ed this afternoon. There is no cross country practice. I would love to get outside and go for a hike. It is very hard to get Seth and Joseph excited about these things but I’m going to see what I can do about it anyway.

And so it is. Have a wonderful day.
