Saturday

I had a very fine Saturday.
It started actual Friday night when GG decided to talk with me.
A very rare occurrence any more!

"My counselor told me I need to talk to you.
"When you had that heart attack back in February,
"I realized just how much I did not want to lose you ...
I guess what I am saying is that: I love you."

I gave her a hug and whispered that I knew that,
At least, since the last heart failure.
So it seems that the warfare since 2001, on her part,
May finally be over!

Thank God!

Saturday we drove down to Fort Nisqually.
I love this place!
But I have no photos as my camera was lost last summer!
And GG killed hers attempting to stuff the wrong cable into the charger port!
sigh ...
And I vaguely remember being here before,
But that was before the amnesia - so there is nothing,
Just a feeling I have done this before!

In the gift shop, I picked up some 18th century leathercraft tools.
A book on designing fences,
And, a part of an 18th century tea brick!!!
Saw some fantastic 18th century pocket knives as well.
But, I hardly have that kind of money!

We next descended down to Owen's Beach, on the Sound.
GG had found this with her brother many years ago.
We got out and I managed to walk about 100 yards before my knee tired,
So we parked ourselves on some driftwood and watched the children frolic in the waves!
Very funny!

As I drove us back to the freeway,
Many overlapping detours completely got us lost!
And suddenly, there was an art supply store!
So I had to lap the block three times to find any parking space.

Inside was the most wonderful assortment of everything!
I spent my bank balance, but still not even the price of one of those knives!
I can hardly wait to start painting again!!!!!
