Being happy is all about being creative and being connected to others. These postings will be part of the reality I have created for myself as well as being a way to share that reality with - and connect to - you. Thanks for reading.
Mark felt like a stud, being the only male in the group. Of course, he drove, so we could also call him our chauffeur...
"Lend our voices only to sounds of freedom. No longer lend our strength to that which we wish to be free from - fill our lives with love and bravery and we shall lead...a life uncommon."
I set the spring "being in the water" record at our cottage back in March - the 26th to be exact (check out my blog from March!). Today I believe I set the fall record. October 7th, 10 a.m. - ALL the way under, and it was fantastic! This picture is from yesterday, when Amy and I went in. The 10 second timer only lets us get so far...!
After relaxing thoroughly with swimming, walking the beach and reading in the shade, Amy and I ventured out for an "amazingly" fun time in the Depner Farm's corn maze. Great exercise. Intriguing intellectual stimulation . And the smell of corn.
I had flashbacks to corn detassling in my youth. I still HIGHLY recommend it!
A welcome sight after we gave up with only 5 of our 6 holes punched. Next time we're going for the night time flashlight edition of the maze! Only on saturdays in October, so get yourself there!
I posted a similar picture a few months back. For the october edition, just add leaves and fences.

"Check out how I can make my hand disappear..."
"I think you're silly, but I'll smile at you to make you feel good."
Think Gina's feeling self-conscious about FINALLY picking up a guitar??
"I want to be a Scot! When can I sign up for classes??"
The park provided fun for all...
Happy Birthday, Darrin!! May the Colts and Packers keep winning...
