today is the big "steamboat days"
parade in carver. i'm missing church
for this!?
oh, here's amanda (from last friday)
heading off to the bus stop for her official
1st day of kindergarten!
here she is with mom...
so, apple day.
ran into a lot of friends.
everyone says..."move to excelsior!"
well, not right now anyway.
heck, i grew up there, i'm not ready
to return to the roost just yet.
don't get me wrong, i LOVE excelsior!
i think about the only thing you can't
do there is get a tatoo....and i could be
wrong about that!
you've got the old log theatre....
the dock cinema, dunn brother's,
there's even a cub foods now,
of course there's lake minnetonka,
maynard's, bayside the cutest shops!
oh, my God, what am i waiting for??!!!
oh yea, i have to talk that over with gary!
tomorrow is our 8th wedding anniversary.
and as we have for the past 5 years we
will be celebrating by watching all of the
news coverage of the anniversary of
the attack and collapse of the
World Trade Center.
not that we choose to or anything but
i'm told that on i think MSNBC they are
going to run, in it's entirety, in real time,
the events as they unfolded that morning
5 years ago.
i remember sitting at our kitchen counter
on the 1st anniversary when they did the
same thing on all the major networks.
i hadn't seen it because when it happened,
gary and i were asleep in california.
it happened the morning we were to fly home.
we were out there in wine country on an
anniversary trip.
i sat at the kitchen counter and sobbed.
i'm sure i'll cry again tomorrow...
hopefully not over the loss of the vikings
tomorrow night! :)
