A Rain Soaked Saturday


Wow, the weather in recent days has been superb for tomato plants and weeds, but not quite user friendly for family fun—hot, humid, wet, wet, wet!

The Saturday began conventionally, with Daddy off to work early and returning by 10 a.m. (actually running a little late, as Daddy first dropped off the Mazda at City Tire to have an alignment evaluation, and then walked home to return later for the car). Daddy barely made it to our door, before the initial rains began to fallJ.

Once home, Daddy and Mommy finished loading the precious cargo (yes, that would be the two of youJ) in the car to head to the Farmer’s Market—we decided it would be fool-hardy to attempt a carriage ride with the pending rains, and boy was that an intelligent choice! Once at the Farmer’s Market Daddy purchased some Amish tomatoes, Mommy purchased some cut wild flowers, and Mommy and Daddy purchased some banana bread and a couple of cookies for a couple of cookie monstersJ. It began to rain, as we left hurriedly the Farmer’s Market and drove a couple of blocks for an early lunch at one of Mommy’s restaurant discoveries—the Main Street Café—the homemade quiche, biscuits and gravy, and blueberry muffin were delicious—Mommy has indeed made a discovery for us! Even the coffee was extraordinary!

After our late breakfast-early lunch, we went on an antiquing tour of some of our favorite antique stores, and worked in picking up the Mazda and driving it home before continuing on our antique tourJ.  We also made our way to a nursery where we stocked up our selected needs to fulfill our pledge that we would construct a “fairy garden” in our backyard near your swingset-play areaJ.

Mommy and Daddy both had exhausting weeks, and by the time we concluded our shopping adventure, we were truly worn out. We made our way home and prepared a slumber party setting in our study for the three amigos (Bodhi, Buddha, and Daddy) to settle in for the night. A few “my shows” on Nickelodeon for Ms. Bodhi, and a few “Max and Ruby stories” for Mister Buddha, and before you knew it, we had all drifted into dreamland.

Daddy dreamed he whispered “night, night,” and dreamed he heard Mommy whisper back, “night, night.”


It was then official, “night, night!”
