I've been alerted that Jim Morrison is not showing up again in the post below this one. It's just not the same without him - at ALL - so here's a look at the long fairly typical New England driveway at the house with the huge Black Lives Matter sign out by the road. Week before last I noticed they've added a Peace Flag with a very colorful background. A flashy relative of our more traditional rainbow Pace flag.
I was nervous about taking this picture same as last time but equally determined. I heard a very big sounding dog bark behind me and met a very wonderful - and quite enormous - white dog. I tried to find the breed online by searching on 'big white dogs'. The only pic I found of the one I saw did NOT have a breed name to accompany it. But that particular pup of the same unknown type was evidently named Annabelle.
The dog I actually met was friendly, covered with dry plant debris, and joyously - but perhaps not intentionally - unaccompanied. I got in my car promptly rather than lingering.
Drove on this road twice on Wednesday because the first time I couldn't find the apple pie add-on we'd ordered. It was difficult to accept so I checked everything four times to no avail. When I got home I emailed to see if she'd prefer to give us credit or have me write and mail a new check in the corrected amount. Seems her husband was helping out and put out our pie with the wrong name. Back I went to get it. We had two other pies but 'somehow' (side-eye at the person who declared it a somehow type of situation...) they were both more than half eaten by Wednesday mid-morning following our traditional family pre-Thanksgiving Pie Breakfast.
I am thankful for many things.
hope you are too ...
