Dinner at the River

Monday evening we had dinner down by the Missouri River. We have had a lot of rain in our neck of the woods and this has caused the river to swell. It is a few feet from floodstage, pretty entertaining. I'm not sure how watching water flow by kept our attention but it did. It reminds me of a video Papa Weissenbach took when visiting my sister in England. He has about 15 minutes of the Ocean. Just standing there looking at the ocean. He was mesmerized by it. However, watching it on tape is just boring. When we watch that family video we quickly fast forward any ocean scenes (there were a few) without even thinking about it.

We need rain. Send some our way.

I enjoy picnics. Everything tastes better outside, I think.

When I saw the afghan I thought you must be the fast crocheter around. And then I realized it was a different one. :)
