Good morning
It was a late night so I'm a little slow starting this morning. Of course the Weekend Chore list awaits.
Debbie - Alaska is the place I most want to visit, always has been. <delete political comment about getting there sooner rather than later
> I do love reading your Alaska stories.
Ruth - Poor Disney! How nice to have a visit with friends and less clean-up. I know you will enjoy the extra dog in the house
Mom - We got those storms last night too. It's been a year. Enjoy your run.
Cottage - A relaxing day sounds perfect.
Chelby - Hope the class is interesting and you have plenty of day left when it's over. I'd take it twice too
The forecast for today is much better than it was but we are still committed to a chore day. Our house has reached the raking out stage, so no excuses! I've also got greens that I dried and berries on a tray that need to be finished. Might freeze a few bags of greens for winter eating too.
Our one outing will be to the second park we are considering for the wedding. I promised my friends that I would make a decision this weekend and I need to do that. I've been assured that it won't be tacky to use evite and a Facebook event rather than dead tree invitations, except for the non-tech types. I like that idea a lot more. I also like spending money on lean-tos and tent sites for night before bonfires and music rather than overpriced invitations. Guess I'm not a traditional kind of girl
That does explain the insistence on wearing jeans...
Okay, time to get moving if I have any hope of getting out of the house today!
Oh, and my favorite beach so far is Ogunquit Beach in Maine. It's a long expanse of perfectly white sand with dunes along the edge and a beautiful rocky path at the end. It's not what you expect in Maine. Since I usually go to the ocean to bird and not to sun or swim though most of my favorite beaches are rocky.
ETA - Debbie all those cherries sound fabulous. Yum! Dried cherries are my favorite crockpot oatmeal addition.
