A Walk in the Park

My Best Man and my father...

 

Out of the Closet

We brought an old game 

 out of the closet.

It took awhile to sort through 

our collection of various pieces,

and refresh ourselves with the

basic rules (thanks to the internet)...

 but the game commenced and eventually ended

with sore fingers from the "flicking".

Tonight we may try makeshift cues!

Thursday in Auburn

 

We spent an hour or so in nearby Auburn IN

where various local artists had painted small potting benches

that were placed around the square.  It was a perfect

reason for a summer stroll

under the beautiful, blue sky.

We broke our stroll

to enjoy breaded tenderloin sandwiches

at one of the restaurants,

shaded by umbrellas in an outdoor setting.

Two murals caught my eye along the way...

I was happy to share the experience

with my father and husband.

Life is beautiful.

Sane, Simple, Sacred Scenes from the Weekend

 I had a rather relaxing weekend

 Spent an overnight with my sister

while her husband was away.

 I enjoyed the farm scenes along the few miles

between our two homes...

So thankful that at least a PART

of the world around me is peaceful...

This too is a grace from God that I accept with a thankful heart.

Picnic in the Park

 Beautiful picnic lunch Sunday

 with social distancing, family, and a beautiful site--

 a local park featuring a rose garden...

...and did I mention "perfect weather"?

Renewed

A recent photo from our tiny patio

(pretty as it is)

resulted in a project....

 and so my hard-working husband did the "grunt work"

to clean off and replace a bolt on this bench...

Dad, 93-years-old, sanded it down to prepare for finish.
It takes a village!
Stay tuned for the completed project.
