Hi,
Well, it got a little warmer today. I think we reached 90°F. Not bragging, just wanted you to know that we’re suffering over here. Send ice, snow, whatever you can spare.
The ‘Easy Monday’ song for this week has been sung by hundreds of singers all over the world. Says what can’t be said by many. “Why do stars fall down from the sky, every time you walk by? Just like me, they long to be __ __ __.” Clue: This hit was first recorded by a brother and sister act. It should have been looping in your head by now (555).
Today was our ‘At Home’ day. We talked to Joe in Palo Alto, California and caught up on the happenings in his life. JaiDee came upstairs so we turned the computer around so Joe could see him. Joe is a big fan of the dogs and got a kick out of JaiDee being affectionate with Lisa.
There are two big flowering trees on the west side of our house and they are both blooming. Every morning and evening the scent from the two trees fills the yard with a very intoxicating smell. It makes me feel like just sitting down and enjoying it until it’s gone. One of the trees had lower branches that we could pick flowers from, until a gardener trimmed it. We used to collect them and brings them to breakfast and Blue would take them to his room. Wow, talk about a sweet memory.
Since we’re on the topic of trees, here is a photo of a tree at Rai Mae Farluang that blows my mind.
There are many birds that live in our yard. There is one who has been here a long time, but has recently become very vocal. When I say vocal, he sings his simple song at a volume and with such repetition that our only recourse is to close the windows. There are a few more in the neighborhood, but their calls are far enough away that it’s not a problem. I wish he’d to visit his friends in the trees in the distance. Living in the Wild Kingdom is not always paradise (555).
Have a Happy Tuesday.
Peace,
Danny
