| Raining out the back door, too... |
I was looking at weather listings on my homepage and thought I must not be reading correctly since it is much warmer in Hancock, NY than it is in Hope Mills or Kannapolis, NC. I'm sure the folks at home are taking advantage with late-in-the-season cookouts and such but I hope they won't mind that I am hoping for a little snow when I get back home.
I guess I am just one of the diehard "Catskill Mountain folk." Or, as one nice young man put it, several years ago during an outdoor group gathering : "Dorothy, you're. . .you're just a country girl!" He meant it as a most sincere compliment and, understanding that, I was very touched by the depth of his perception. However, spontaneous laughter was the response from all the other students and Cindy nearly rolled down the hill, she was laughing so hard. It was a fun, lasting moment during a fun day. I call them "memory moments" or sometimes "God times." You can't force them to happen but when they do, you can feel them being preserved in time and you know you'll have them forever. . .and they will surface at the most unsuspecting times. Times such as this when all I wanted to know was the temperature so I would know what to wear.
My journey is filled with "memory moments" and I am grateful. . . . . .
