July 7

Rainy, rainy, and rainy.

And cold.

And the day was made more dreary by my turning on the radio and hearing "Sister Golden Hair" playing. Blech.

I got out to an amazing store that I have visited in the past, but forgot how nice it is. Rooster Brothers has a great selection of cookware and foods. Too bad I'm not the best cook ever, but I can dream. 

Fire in the wood stove and games inside.

The girls made "clay dough" creatures and baked them in the oven. Many games have been played with them since.

I took one for the team and made it out to a beach at nearly 8:00p.m. last night. It was lame, but it qualified for my challenge - feet touched the rocks, nose smelled the salt air. Also, note my vintage CB ski jacket, straight from 1986 high school making a reappearance in my wardrobe. Control your envy, people.
