Missing Macy's

So, yesterday I was kinda halfway going to go down to Macy's Herald Square and shop. But time got away from me, and what with one thing and another, I didn't go.
"I'll go tomorrow," I told myself. "Definitely."

Today dawned dark and rainy, and stayed that way into the afternoon.
"Huh," I said to myself, "this is an excellent day to stay in and drink coffee." So I did. First I played with K's coffee grinder. It was most entertaining. Then I surfed the web, ate leftover Chinese food, and read a little Twain.

Then everyone came home and we ate pesto.

Because, allegedly, S & Tiger sometimes build the Tri-Borough Bridge,

K has re-created the Yolo Causeway in the living room. It's really quite scenic.

Motion toward

K & Tiger had a brunch date, and so left early for the city. S and I followed in the afternoon. Going to the station was like driving through a painting. In the evening we picnicked in the park on the hill. We spotted Tiger's friend C on his way home with his mother, and inveigled them into an impromptu play date. There was much running and kicking of the soccer ball. Then the sun set behind the trees, and we came home.
