Together again! (And traveling to make it happen!)

Hooray! We can hang out with our family, friends, and neighbors again!  

AND, we can TRAVEL to be with loved ones!

We are breathing a sigh of relief now that 

vaccinations have given us back our freedom!

American Idol ended. Congrats to Chayce Beckham on the win! 

The Voice ended. Congrats to Cam Anthony on the win!

Wyatt sang TO ME.
Check it out here: Wyatt Pike on Cameo.

Music on Sirus, SoundCloud, Spotify, 
LPs, 45s, 8 tracks and the radio 
keep Mom from getting cranky. 
Music soothes her soul.
Here are some of the tunes that have kept her toes tapping this month.
(Some of the pics are of album covers - sadly, she didn't get to hear them.)
               
The graphics on LPs are so interesting!

Mom purchased a FOUR day pass to Lollapalooza! Have you?
She's excited to see and hear Aly and Aj and Journey!
We live where the seasons change.
The colors and smells of springtime flowers are delicious.

Mom continues to come home smelling like other dogs...
Hurry to get the opportunity to shop at Fletcher and Fork!
Mom loves the sunny stationary and ass-per-grass tea towel she bought there. 
The city is awakening from its pandemic slumber. 
Beaches are speckled with volleyball players and sun-catchers.
The lake is teaming with boats.
Things are looking up!
What are you reading?

Antique and resale stores, estate sales and thrifting continue to be eye candy.
       
Walks around town, to the beach and to the 
Botanic Gardens continue to be such a blessing.

But now that we are able to go places we are dressing up again!
Coordinated outfits!
Jewelry!
Swag!
It seems like people are taking steps in the right direction and through the miracle of vaccines
travel bans have been lifted and we have the ability to 
HUG
again! 
Mom traveled to see her loved 
ones and gave them lots of XXXs and OOOs!!!
On Cinco de Mayo she was able to celebrate her friend's birthday
WITH HER FRIEND!
They went thrifting, exploring and had fun talking!
Mom was thrilled to be back on country roads again to be BARN again!
It will be interesting to see if Mom continues to do puzzles.
While Mom was gone an alien came to visit.
We had one Baltimore Oriole siting.
Mom went away, came home, went away, 
came home and is now going away again.
She's FLYING to Colorado!
She's going to lead a women's writing workshop!
I'm excited for her, but I miss her.
Lately my human sister has been bribing me to eat 
by leading me to my food with a carrot.
Maybe I can keep up my food boycott and score a carrot all the time.
Shhhhhh, don't tell.
PAWS and think about a place where you hope to travel.
How can you make a plan to make that trip happen?
I hope you get to see what you hope to see while you are spinning on the planet.
Thanks for checking out the blog!

(This may be the closest Mom gets to Hawaii, 
but she's enjoying traveling there vicariously through a loved one's posts.)
CONGRATS TO ALL THE GRADS!!!
