Mirrors reverse everything. When I look in a mirror and raise my right hand, it looks like I’m raising my left. That leaves me with a question: Why does the mirror only reverse left to right and not top to bottom too? If I lie on my side in front of a mirror and raise my right arm, it still looks like I’m raising my left, so why when I’m standing up, do I still see my head at the top, and not my toes?
I’m so glad
I’m so glad we didn’t have anything invested in this Super Bowl; it didn’t really matter to us who won. Wow, what a game, but it had to be agonizing for fans of either team. Life is so much simpler when your favorite team is *not* in the Super Bowl.
We got applauded today
It was the simplest little thing. We left the Taco Bell, walked across the parking lot and got in the car. As I was walking around to my side of the car, I heard this sound. A woman in the passenger seat of a car waiting at the stoplight on the corner had rolled down her window and was clapping. Something about us delighted her. Maybe it was that we were holding hands on the way to the car. Maybe it was that I opened the car door for Judy. I waved back and she gave me a thumbs up. Judy waved back and the onlooker gave her a thumbs up as they were driving on. It left us happy that she was so happy. A serendipitous moment; we contributing a moment of joy to her day, and she to ours.

Enjoying nature’s most perfect food.
Time to go home. 2017 January trip We ran out of dog food. We’re back to Sandpipers.
Time to go home. 2017 January trip We ran out of dog food. We’re back to Sandpipers. See that?
There at the bottom of the bushes.
It’s a snake.
A tiny tiny tiny little snake.
It’s called a Texas long-nosed snake.
It’s a harmless little thing.
But its nose doesn’t look very long to me. Meanwhile, Evening light.
We signed up for another night.
