Now April


Happy April!

I have spent days trying to get new photos to my blog. I finally gave up and decided to just write with photos from the past. Today was a lovely spring day. We finally had rain last night so today is a puffy cloud day. We had a mixed up month March was like April, and who knows what April will be. I still love April though, the new lacy green leaves, the lovely smell of growing. I have some peppers and tomatoes growing under lights. I am pondering what other lovely things I can plant. Maybe some zinnias. 

We went for a week to the beach. It was fantastic. No people to speak of and we had the beach to ourselves. The weather was perfect and I did hook and I did do counted cross stitch. I did read. But we walked the most. We had Polly with us and she loves the beach. I also cooked. For some odd reason, I always feel like when we are camping in the trailer, I am back to playing house. I loved play houses as a child and I always could make one that would keep me busy and my grandparents farm always had something growing. So I could make dinners out of walnuts, pecans, or pinon nuts. 
 

When I was in kindergarten, In the corner of the class room was the cutest little house. I always wanted to play in it. The play house would be a total mess, and that was when the teacher would let me play in it to clean it up. She would say, "Kim, would you like to clean the play house?" I always did. So when we go camping I have that same memory and I finally get to play house to my hearts content. 

We walk that path 2 or 3 times a day. There are so many things to watch. The sea changes color with the different times of day. It was during a heat wave so it was about 75 every day. It was lovely. I can't show you any of my hooking because I can't figure out how to get my pictures to my computer. 

I am still around though. Its been a delightful week. Only four more weeks and I am off for the summer. I can hardly wait.
