Picaresque: Whew..Sunday a day of rest

About Me

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.

Whew..Sunday a day of rest

Saturday was spent in recuperation and hanging out and doing laundry at Deerfield. Unplanned and completely pleasant. Lori wanted some pictures for her Christmas cards and I took some crappy ones. Jason harvested bananas. We visited. We talked about David and Jaqui's completely fabulous Christmas party that we attended on Friday. (I'll provide a link to pictures) That party is completely over the top. The only thing that saves it from completely wretched excess is it is very egalitarian and diverse in guest selection-the gardener, housekeeper, dentist's helpers, as well as the well-heeled and well-off, attend. And they all enjoy. Some are real characters and now old friends to me. Jacqui's mom tends to get well oiled and is a hoot. David's mom just graduated from Clown School. Not boring.

It is pretty cool down here today and yesterday was in the mid 60's. The dogs were frisky and had a great play day with Juneau. They are very entertaining. We had a reasonable dinner at Duffy's Sport's Tavern, watched the Donco's, and I was heading home with clean clothes at a decent hour. Link to the Party Pictures:
