Good Day for Sun & Sand


On the shores of Lake Michigan!
As much sand as an ocean-shore beach
with water that stretches as far as we could see!
Fresh-water.
Without, disappointingly, any of the sea creatures the boy loves.
We didn't miss any of the typical beach-crowding though.
Beach-friendly graffiti.
We even picked-up & properly disposed of some trash!
(Davis' idea)

He declared the water to be FREEZING!
Check.
(his 'dream' of being covered with sand)
Nope.
It's not so simple to 'stick a toe in'
to be able to say that you've been in a Great Lake.
The water was that cold!
He did it.
Lake Michigan.
Four more to go!

欢乐中国的明天!

How about having Chinese food tomorrow?      Great! December 13th is Chinese Tomorrow! What is Chinese Tomorrow? When families get together for Chinese food and celebrate everything that is 'put-off' until tomorrow.   Here are a few rules: Everyone wears black (the actual day 'tomorrow' is dark & never sees a sunrise) Celebrate things that are put-off until tomorrow (find joy in those normally unpleasant procrastinations) Choose just one person to open a single fortune cookie (everyone else must wait until tomorrow ) Blog about it (post the fortune's lucky numbers as the title) Enjoy the great food! (Chinese food buffets are the best!)  欢乐中国的明天!

Happy New Year!
