Peace Like A River


It was a wide river, mistakable for a lake or even an ocean unless you'd been wading and knew its current. Somehow I'd crossed it... Now I saw the stream regrouped below, flowing on through what might've been vineyards, pastures, orhards... It flowed between and alongside the rivers of people; from here it was no more than a silver wire winding toward the city. - Leif Enger, Peace Like A River

The kids are enjoying their naps. Rhonda is too. She is feeling a bit run down. I woke up this morning too with an upset stomach. Hmmm.

Beautiful day today, nice and sunny and warm. Will probably throw the kids in the pool later today. I mowed the yard and just got back from taking the grass to the compost heap.

Last night had a little potluck at a neighbor's down the street for our next door neighbor who is moving. Was nice to talk to some people we really hadn't talked to much since moving here. Had some good food. But, I spent most of the time outside with John. He wasn't keen on just sitting and talking, and they didn't have any little kid toys.

I took them to Bumpy Slide Park this morning. John had fun going up and down the big metal slide. He spent most of his time there.
