Kentucky: No longer dreaming

Two weeks ago, I was playing with Sonya. We had a great time together. I went to swimming class



Then we went to the Exploratorium.

Sonya was puppeteering














and studying


and making ameal in the little hut.
















At home, we were always doing something - playing, reading, watching shows and, of course, creating...



















In addition to all of this, I spent two days looking at houses. We decided to buy something small and convenient to Missy. It will give us a chance to see if we like Lexington enough to retire there, be close to help out when the new baby comes, and also give Missy and B a place to put company when someone else somes to town, since the future arrival of our new grandson Judah Gabriel will fill the house they now live in. It's on the golf course, so Rob can see if he likes that or not.

Restless

I've been restless lately.
Maybe it's because of Rob's accident.........



or because I have been reading BJ Hoff's book "Song of Erin"


...or because Rob's job has been changed again.......


I've been homesick so to speak....


For the green hills and deep blue lakes....


For the smiles and laughter of the people

in the land of my ancestors


For a repreive from the pressures and uncertainty of daily living


For a chance to once again meander along narrow roads

and walk woodland pathways


To commune with antiquity




and dream of times yet to be.................
