Fountain Day 2024

 What a weird day!  First, my plans changed yesterday for today.  The schedule was changed.  I made new plans to visit 2 parks today.  I knew it was fountain day but I had found a site saying there would be a ceremony on Friday.  Chris and I texted back and forth this morning about this and I decided I was wrong.  So no problem, plans change.

Next the weather, when Charlie woke me up it was a heavy mist.  Within an hour it was pouring rain then the sun came out with blue skies.  I get ready to go to the ceremony.  When I walked to the car the skies are gray.  I get to the fountain and parking was available so I know something is off.  I saw the parks guys and they told me the ceremony had been cancelled.  And that moment it started to rain.


I found my first Parade of Hearts heart.


I've been so excited for this.

They were other people there.  They stayed in their cars.  It was raining so hard and I was soaked.  I called it a day.  On the way home the sun and blue skies appeared again.  I will have to go back when it's not raining.

This has to be my shortest adventure.


This morning I started getting ready to paint.

I'm trying to purge "stuff" and I will also be parting with some furniture.  It's funny I have gotten rid of so much before stuff before I moved.  Since getting here I have continued to sort through stuff and have gotten rid of more.  Hopefully this painting and furniture change will be it.  I can't wait to start and most of all replace the carpet.

Until tomorrow.
