June 20, 2014 Friday New Moon watch out for the crazies

Went for a walk this morning.  Beautiful day.


Psalm 103 - my favorite "Praise the Lord oh my soul and forget not all His benefits" "who redeems you from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion,  who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's."  Praise the Lord O my soul.


On this day:
1975 - Pete and I went up north with 3 other couples to Pete and June's rustic cottage on their own private lake.  On Saturday we went canoeing on the Rifle River and spent a beautiful day Sunday floating around the private lake on rafts.  How about it Ty?  Remember that weekend?


1975 the movie "Jaws" was released.  I wouldn't swim anywhere for a long time after seeing this, how about you?


Parenting - My neighbor has her two sons, 15 and 12 on a diet.  I give her a lot of credit, they are doing great and will be so much happier, especially at that age, looking better.


Book Club - King and Kingdom by Danielle Bourdon, is a continuation of Heir Untamed.  The heroine, Chey, is really living the good life, they are in Monaco living it up.  Take me away......
