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

Happy Birthday, Rhonda!!! She took the day off, so they all are going to go to Como Zoo today.

John had a little eye appt today, his regular yearly checkup after his eye surgery. His eyes are doing fine, doesn't need glasses.

Oh yeah, at the little fair on Saturday, as we were riding the merry-go-round, John said "giddy-up! giddy-up!" Also, as we were walking around he said "I want to go on three rides." When we go to the bacon-and-egg play place, there are some coin operated rides, and I always say we can only go on two rides. So at the fair, he probably thought he was asking for a bit of a treat to go on three rides. Which was fine, as we were planning to go on three or four rides anyway. Expensive though, 75 cents a ticket, and most rides took 3 tickets a person.

Both John and Hanna like reading the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom book Grandma got for them. And they both like wearing the sunglasses she got for them too.

Anna Karenina update: I'm on page 107 of 736.
