I was out early this morning for a walk at the Washington Park Arboretum with my old friend Nancy. The park is beautiful in any season, but really spectacular now with the flowering cherry and magnolia trees.
Nancy is in excellent shape. This is good, because it challenges me somewhat and I haven't had much exercise this week. My back seems none the worse for our 2 mile hike, so hopefully that was just what I needed.
It is Friday and the sun is out. A bad combination. I drove home surrounded by seemingly insane drivers. I'm getting used to my pretty new car, and naturally feeling protective. My palms were sweating by the time I got back to West Seattle. We have freeway on-ramps here that deposit you in the fast lane. Think about that. (Talk about insane.)
Well, there is something about these first warm days that makes people go crazy on the roads. I don't know if that happens in other parts of the country. Maybe it's because we've been deprived of sunshine for so many months.
In other news. South of the border, the fun goes on. The families have just returned from an overnight camping and kayaking excursion on Espiritu Santo Island.
Have a good weekend.
