It’s 92* here with a heat advisory – feels like 99*. It’s been a very long time since it’s been this hot. I was glad to be inside, although I did spend about half an hour pulling weeds. The rest of the day I spent cleaning, doing laundry, and working on my ‘to-do’ list. I need to take the trash up to the road and also get the mail. Next on the list.
I printed out my parking pass for Hanna’s Town on Saturday – Frontier Court Days. I will be working the top floor of the tavern from 11am to 1pm, and then was snagged into the food booth from 1pm to 5pm. Never did the food booth – I’m more into the history aspect – but I’m sure I’ll catch on. I have noticed several people stopping to snap photos of my yard sign and I hope it entices them to come out.
One of the little side projects I got distracted with was to frame a gift bag from a purchase. I think it looks cute in the gold frame, and I have it sitting on the Secretary in my living room. It’s the little things…
Thanks to a recommendation from my friend Liz Bromke, I found a fun author to follow. Tammy L Grace – and she writes no-nonsense Beach books set in Washington State. I’ve read a few other books set there, but her descriptions are marvelous. I just started book #1 – Beach Haven – and am really enjoying it. I just finished a book by Tracy Rees – The Little Christmas House – and it’s set in the UK. Very different from most of my reads, but it was cute and rewarding and left me wanting to read more. It was, however, a stand-alone novel. Other books were set in the same town, but the characters are different. I do recommend Tammy Grace’s book. Makes me really want to visit Olympic National Park…
Last night I attempted to take photos of the Full Super Moon – but I’m not the best photographer. It was cool standing on the deck, watching the bright orange moon slip up above the trees until it was fully visible in the night sky. I’m sure there are beautiful photos posted on facebook! The supermoon for June is the Strawberry moon…
June 15 – Share a childhood memory about a death that affected you. “When Becky Sink’s baby died. She lived with her parents & her brothers & sisters. They put pennies on the babies eyes so they wouldn’t open. Becky was Ruth Sink’s older sister.” That would be a hard thing to witness.
Yesterday’s vacation destination wasn’t a real destination. It was a scene from Anne of Green Gables, and the picture was what Anne called ‘White Way of Delight’ – and Matthew called ‘The Avenue’. Here are more scenes from the movie:

TOMORROW June 16 is:
Ooooo. Fudge! I don’t think I’ll come across any fudge tomorrow but I can dream. Seems more likely that I’ll have Macaroni Salad… Have a happy Thursday. God bless...
