On the road again……and I’ll be writing about all the things swirling around in my small brain. I know I should be doing this at night….when the thoughts are free and the past is present, but I’ve been on the road and away from a ‘writing machine’…..sure do miss those typewriters….I could really go fast on those babies, and the keys of the Selectric, were just in the right spot.  Oh Well…

Been visiting wonderful friends, wonderful family, wonderful old towns that are well known in my heart. Have welcomed back memories of our family home, the high school I graduated from 50 years ago this year…..and wonderful country auctions,full of lifetimes treasures, awaiting new homes..

The corn is truly ‘higher than an elephant’s eye’ but the yards are crisp from lack of rain.  Hostas outline beautiful neighborhood homes and the Dairy Queen is packed kids.  Little League is in full swing, and the lights glow until at least 10 each evening.

The swimming pool is busy and the park is full of picnics and teens ‘polishing their cars’ under the shade of the oak, maple, and walnut.

Golfers tee off early….really really early……cause 9 holes before they get to work is just a wonderful way to start the day.

Joggers are jogging…..walkers are walking, and gentle hands covered with garden gloves tend the faded blooms of roses and petunias.  

Vacation Bible School is commencing…..swimming lessons are in full swing….tennis, and basketball courts are full of one or ten.

Yes, I’m ‘on the road again’ and it is a refreshing journey to the present and of the past.
