Day One Hundred Seventy Three 2012

Grandson Elijah and I spent the day together. This afternoon, we hit the doughnut shop for some sweet bites.

As the line from the song ‘Horse With No Name’ goes “The heat was hot…..” He wanted me to jump on the trampoline with him, and we did for maybe five minutes, until we both decided we’d be a lot happier and much cooler inside. The soles of our feet were cooked.

He entertained himself off and on today with his new Lego Batman 2 video game for his Nintendo DS. He couldn’t wait to get this one and used some of his own money to buy it. He got to be all sorts of heroes, like Superman, Green Lantern and Flash, to name a few. Way cool game. Way cool kid.

"Summer is a promissory note signed in June,
its long days spent and gone before you know it,
and due to be repaid next January."
- Hal Borland

Day One Hundred Seventy One 2012

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?
W. H. Davies
Just don’t stare at the sun! Here’s a snapshot of the last day of Spring (taken with cell phone camera~I always get the lens flare when shooting at the sun~and the lens flare always looks like a UFO).  The scorching sun decided that today should be the first day of Summer, I think. Happy end of Spring! Tomorrow is another day, another season, Lord willing.

Grandson Knox enjoyed hanging out on the front porch of Cracker Barrel this morning after breakfast, sitting in a rocking chair made just for his size. More fun than pint-sized human beings should be allowed to have.
