Picaresque

Picaresque is the adjective to describe writings about a common or low character who survives the pitfalls of life through luck or good fortune. My travels, interests, my animals, my photographs, my wonderful friends and family are featured.

Name:
Location: Arapahoe, Wyoming, United States

(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

Easter Sunday

My beautiful children knocked themelves out: turkey, dressing, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, crescent rolls, Chilean wine, and strawberry shortcake on a wet and beautiful Easter Sunday. An elegant table, a heartfelt prayer, kind hearts, good souls. Memory Made!
Lori decided the dogs needed an Easter Egg Hunt. She dyed and hid Easter Eggs. Buster was not too interested but Juneau got into it. Using his known vocabulary Jason played "hot and cold" with him and he found all four and enjoyed them. He is a smart dog. They will discover what happens to hard-boiled eggs in a Labrador's digestive tract about 2:00 a.m. A brave and noble experiment.
He enjoyed his Easter Bunny too. Poor thing is missing a leg and cotton is coming out of his tail.

Joyce and Gary went to church and prayed for us this morning. I got a picture of them in their Easter finery. As we woke up to wet and I was leaving, I didn't open the Internet Cafe-but was cajoled into it. Ken said he would close it down which he didn't but he did make sure it stayed dry so no harm done. Although we had rain on and off all day it was straight down rain and misty, and really very pretty. Great Day.
