Driving

Today I didn't get very domestic, just a loaf of banana bread. Maggie followed me around doing the sign for "more" and verbally saying, "mo, mo!" So I guess my half attempt at being somewhat creative turned successful for my biggest fan. It was raining for most of the day and we were feeling a little couped up so I loaded Mags into the car for a quick trip to Moscow. I ran out of hair gel this weekend and you who know me well know that I cannot survive without my gel. I just didn't want to hop onto the highway to town but find an alternative route via a dirt road. I found a great back road full of farms, rolling green hills, great vistas, gardens and beautiful homes. When I was in my early 20s I took drives all the time. Where ever I lived you would think I grew up there because I knew all those back roads so well. Now, as I drive home I pass so many great dirt roads and think to myself, "I have never been down that road and I've passed it 2 times a day for the past 3 years." Oh my 20 year old self would be so disappointed in me!

My goal this summer is take more aimless drives just for the heck of it.
