No longer an only child

Little Foot became a big brother on Tuesday morning.

We’re all in love with this new little guy.

He’s already changed in the two days since I met him. We will need to plan a visit soon. ❤

Tomorrow

This sweet boy, my youngest son, is graduating on Saturday afternoon.

That’s tomorrow… just hours away, really.

I’m a little verklempt tonight.

Friends from Virginia and Western WA will recognize him from his grade school years (and also my friend Gary  on whose wheel he is throwing a pot).

 

I blinked and my baby grew up into a handsome young man of whom I am very proud.

Happy Graduation Day to The Scout, a.k.a, SnakeMaster!

MTM: Busted Downtown

Most folks talk about town fathers, but there are town mothers as well.

These women were busy.

They accomplished much.

I was glad to find them being honored.

Their efforts were written about in the newspaper. The Spokesman Review now occupies several buildings, but the corner lot contains the most photogenic of them.

City hall and its doings are also covered by the paper.

The river runs right through downtown. The lower falls are flowing with snowmelt and spring rains. In the shadow from the bridge, the slanting sun and the rising mist from the tumult created a rainbow in the park.

That last sentence about this photo brought on an earworm.
