Mist

The marine layer that’s been so pervasive has slipped away today. No jackets this morning. It promises to be a hot day. Again, I biked. It was so pleasant. The cool air slipping by. Seeing things close. We took a new route which I probably won’t repeat. The only less pleasant thing was being late. After the festivity of the Block Party/Night out, I didn’t have the heart to wake the kids early. It is summer. So we slipped into VBS late. No biggie. I’ve been resting and looking back at old photos of past block parties. I can’t find photos from last year. Just from 2008. I swear we’ve been doing this for awhile. I think sometimes I don’t take photos. One of the blessings of last night was having kind neighbors helping us haul all the stuff back especially as both our children started to break down. They were probably up too late. It’s not every night that all the little girls come out to play and can just wander the street without fear of cars. There’s a giddy freedom in that. One magical night a year.
