Nice About Today

What was nice about today:

No wind.

We can still smell the lilacs all around our yard, even after two weeks of bloom.

I put lots of tomato plants in the Darwinian garden: the heirloom plants I bought contained, for the most part, two plants each instead of one, unbeknownst to me at the time of purchase.

Cool temperature - hence, the still-blooming lilacs.

No wind.

A little overcast, but a little sunny, too.

I discovered two "volunteer" tulips this morning, out in the middle of nowhere.

A college mate from ?30 years ago? tracked me down today. She and her family of four now live in Cambridge (England, not Massachusetts).

No wind.

I cleaned out our junk drawer. No wonder it wouldn't close.

We had our pasture surveyed this morning. This evening we took Beau the Bloodhound out, and he tracked the scent of the surveyor in our pasture. This bodes well for a fun Easter Egg Hunt in future years...

No wind.

Homemade pizza for dinner.

Cello and guitar playing this evening while the pizza bakes. (Love our kids, miss our kids, but now our kids are gone and we get to play cello and guitar in the evenings instead of help with high school schedules, sports, calculus {him, not me}, fundraisers and volunteer-our-time activities.)

No wind.
