Words (p365; 8.8.11)

Today was another great summer day. I met Leah, Sharon, and Katie at Gasworks. On Kite Hill, there was a group who brought large blocks of ice to sled down the hill. It really works, they zoomed! Afterwards, I met Nina, Griffen, Esther, Dana, and Allison at Oddfellows. So much friendly fun!

One of the best parts of the day was seeing the cards and letter on my table. The old saying of sending love with "flowers and chocolates" is a bit of a misnomer for me. I think I prefer words/letters/books. Ok, maybe with daisies on the side!

Here are some of my recent favs:

Birthday Cards. Joyce gave me the one in the middle--
a woman with a black dog riding towards the beach!

My friend, Liam, 9, made this perfect rendition of Jedi Luke. His brother, Colm, 7,
drew a picture of me in the Space Needle and/or my car driving through a Redwood tree (in photo above)

I have a type/penpal

I'm super excited to write back my penpal. Here is a bit of the story: http://simply-walking.com/2011/08/04/2311/ Today, I also signed up for another typing pal...a stranger (I found a blog looking for typewritten letter/pals)!
