Sunday Mornin'...

...and it's just beautiful today!  Woke to something being thrown against our bedroom window, not once or twice but about five times.  What the heck?  Joe investigated and the culprit was a swallow - actually many swallows - looking for the perfect eave under which to make their nest.  We shooed them away; I remembered Dad brushing away or squirting with the hose to remove the startings of the nests.

Joe got up and proceeded to walk Franklin, as it is a warmer morning than any other.  Off they went; I got up to read the Sunday paper, The Bend Bulletin.  Sure enough, the swallows were at the porch again.  So I in my PJ's go out to the porch to shoo them with the newspaper...  but remember, it's still pretty cool so I shut the door to keep in the heat.  Have you guessed it???!!!  I have locked myself out on my porch in my pajamas and bare feet, with Joe down the street at the park!!  Just what I needed, some STRESS!!!  Did he have his key?  We had talked about hiding a key as these doors are the kind that stay locked from the inside unless you release it...

Well, Joe and Frankie come 'round the corner, I am waving the newpaper, he waves back at me.  I holler, PLEASE tell me you have your key!??   Yes, he does, thank you God!  Crisis averted; I did not have to meet my neighbors in my pajamas.

We are now at the coffeehouse with scones and breakfast burritos and all is good.  Whoever comes to visit, this is a great 2-mile walk with a delicious reward at the end!

Heading up the check out Mt. Bachelor today.  It's about a 17-mile drive - that's all! - and we will take the camera and Franklin.  Hope you have a wonderful STRESS-FREE day!

xoxo
