Road Trip Day with Excellent Company. Thursday, June 12th.

 1. My hair got cut very very short yesterday,   We were visiting the Peony Gardens and remembering our Dear Classmate Wallace..  We also visited Trader Joe's and the Freeport Thrift Shop and a Wonderfully Old Fashioned Diner in Portland for a late breakfast after Patty's Medical Appointment.. 

2. Haven't done a Road Trip since our Master Gardener Classes.  Traffic was EPIC.  We passed three large Fire Engines- Three Alarm Fire. (Patty had some Firemen in her family) Lights, Siren and Horns....going north and we were in the South Lanes.  

3. I purchased Snack Items...at Trader Joe's...there were Freezer Case Items I was interested in but hadn't brought a Cooler and Ice with me.  And I had lots of frozen Chinese Dumplings in the Freezer at home.

4. Grass is being cut- 8 days......between cuts.  I was getting worried as I really MUST have something to get myself worried about these days.  

5. Porch Repaired Rebuilt Steps are sturdy and quite wonderful. And EVEN at the top so no one can now catch a toe and go flying down to the sidewalk.  Someone = Me. I am getting a new Mailbox Stand....for my new-ish Black with White Polka Dotted Mailbox.

6. I remembered Things, People, (NAMES) and Experiences today while with Patty (from years and decades ago even names of people we didn't  know well and food we ate.)....so my memory isn't as bad as some think...it's the very new not very interesting stuff I cannot retain.

7. I set and used my little alarm clock....all on my own. To wake me this morning.

8.  I discovered I had two pairs of wearable (for today) pants and not much in the way of a top to wear with them.  I have on a patterned rose pink capri pants and a faded red cotton long sleeved cotton shirt- very old mended rips "at Home" wear..  On my adventure I wore a long sleeved  linen shirt...sleeves rolled.  Pale Peach. With dark capri pants.  I do need new shoes.
