In honor of the sun's return ...

...I just have to post this photo of the pattern made by the rising sun and window blinds on our kitchen wall. If I could type and jump for joy at the same time, I'd look kinda silly right now. And what a blessing that I could take today off from work to pal around with Mississippi friends who have stopped by Portland on their way to a wedding in Washington state. Plus yesterday evening we also got to visit with a Georgia-moving-to-North-Carolina friend in Portland for a week to learn/tour for his new job with Daimler Trucks.

For all of us the guys grilled last night, photos forthcoming. Just let me say this, "First Walla Wall Sweet Onions" for you Pacific Northwesterners out there. Southerners, think Vidalias and you'll get the taste.

One more really neat thing, this week we celebrate being in Portland two whole years. Thanks to everyone who helped us move 'cause we love our new city and being so close to Lamont and Leland. I feel like the luckiest woman in world.

Love the title about honoring the sun's return. Nice photo.

Did someone shrink Mamma and put her on the bottom left shelf? :D
