Hello ~'::

This week has been a rainy one. After all of the hot, dry, droughtish weather rain is a pleasant thing. Lots of thunder and lightning and heavy raindrops on the roof. A couple of days were even pleasantly cool and required a sweater!
Rain doesn’t make it very easy to dry clothes outside on the clothesline though. Right now my main room has three loads of trying-to-dry laundry in it on hangers and over chairs and on my handy-dandy drying rack. :) I am trying to get caught up with laundry today so that I can finish packing for our road trip and vacation out west next week.
Another thing I am attempting to get caught up with is dusting. Yikes. It is quite astounding how fast dust bunnies and cobwebs can proliferate themselves. It is a satisfying job to have done though.
For our vacation this summer we’ll be driving out to Yellowstone in Montana for a week with some good friends of ours. I can’t wait to see all of the beautiful places. I enjoyed going out through South Dakota and Wyoming last summer. This year should be more of the same sort of beauties. We’ll be camping in a pop-up camper on the west side of Yellowstone near Old Faithful, I believe. We hope to take a day trip and see the Grand Tetons. It should be a fast but truly enjoyable week. We’ll leave on Sunday. I am not sure that I will have internet access during the trip, but I will take lots of pictures and post the best of them when we come back!
