Going Green

Leave a comment

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday. I did and it leaves me going into the week on a nice running start. Well I don’t know about running but my mental attitude is very good. There are very few things as good in life as family time. Well at least for my family.

Everything outside is turning green it seems. Even the muscle cars. Saw this beast when I was gassing up on Saturday. But back to the green. I love it. One it returns my home to some more privacy because I can no longer see the homes in the distance through the woods. I also love the sound wind makes through leaves.

I love the shade it provides from the hot summer sun when laying in my hammock. I love the birds that come back to dart in and out of the trees. Yeah its a grand time of year. Well there are a few people suffering with the pollen explosion. My sympathies are with them. Fortunately I’ve mostly outgrown those issues.


So what is on tap for the week? I got the cameras out today and did some family shots. Tomorrow I’m going to try to continue picking up the cameras and get a few new shots to use this week.

I’m also going to spend some time in the workroom with the wood and stone projects I’ve been slow on moving forward with. Also got to finish getting some prints made for my neighbors.

Oh no, just glanced at the to do list and they are getting out of hand. Got to start knocking some more items out each week.


Random Thoughts of the Day

There are two things wrong with the NBA game. They allow players to palm the ball which isn’t in the rules. And they allow traveling.

That pollen and wind has taken its toll on my ride. I believe a bath is in order for it tomorrow.

My basketball is pumped up again. Now lets see if I can get my behind out to the driveway.

There are few greater joys than holding an infant and having them smile at you.
