Random
I am not a morning person. Recently I did a sleep study at a nearby medical center. They kick you our pretty early. I got to see a sunrise in the parking lot…
Ella and Velvet-cat. So sweet. And of course she’s reading. I think she does about 98% of her waking hours.
We had some of the kids friends over – 3 brothers – for watergun fights and trampoline jumps.
I have many crochet and one knitting project partway through. I finally finished up one crochet project.
(In the background is Ella taking her first piano lesson. She was amazing!)
Here’s another crochet project that I have been working on. At this point (not at this point in the picture, but at this point in time as I type this post) it is almost complete.
And this happens to be in the car going to vacation Up North on the 4th of July.
Ok, this is not Instagram, but it was from my phone. This week back home in Northern Illinois it was in the high 90’s. Up North in Wisconsin, we found a bit of refuge from the heat.
Ah, true heaven. Our home away from home. And bonus, this campground had NICE showers and flushing toilet. YES!
This campsite was in Algoma, Wisconsin. As Jason pointed out, the name of this town sounds eerily like a type of cancer/tumor.
No camping trip is complete without an electronic keyboard. Right?
Sweet pic of Jason and Ella where we had a picnic near the beach.
The beach. No, it’s not Miami. It’s ALGOMA and it’s not the ocean, it’s Lake Michigan!
After two nights in Agoma, we were on our way farther North to Door county. Lots of barn quilt squares along the way. I love Wisconsin.
We settled at a new campsite in Ellyson Bay, WI. This was an even better campground with even better showers, flushing toilets and well maintained everything. Here are some random pics of our trip. I CANNOT leave out this darling squirrel. We have squirrels in our area, but the ones we saw here were so tiny in comparison.
This is another town in Door County called Sister Bay.
The follow spot is one of the most peaceful places I’ve experienced in my life. Really.
Ella is doing the Grayslake Pageant again this year. Here she is at the first practice.
At my family birthday lunch.
A haircut I got this Monday.
Before (I know not a great comparison since I had a ponytail)
After. Well, I love it! I wish I could get it as straight and sleek as my stylist!
