The lake gulls did not miss us. They flew around today with their high-pitched sound, like they did while we were gone. They do not get a vacation.
It was nice to come home to this peaceful setting, where we live. The high hit the mid-to-upper 70s today. Bright sunshine all around. Al & I bought some groceries, got a light dinner at Zorba’s and pretended like we weren’t out of money as of tomorrow. I needed to go into my office but decided the heck with it & will just go in early tomorrow morning. Did some laundry at home, then went out to dry it at the local laundromat, as the free washer and dryer we picked up is really only “free washer”. The dryer doesn’t work.
Then I took a late evening walk around the pond and neighborhood, as the dark deepened and the moon came out. I’ve been playing on facebook, and my husband the early riser went to bed before dark! He is wiped out from the trip. We got home around midnight last night.
The frogs are slowly coming out of hiding, or hibernation, if they do that. Heard some loud treefrogs today.
I am happy here, and this is where we will stay.
