For some reason whenever it rains I am doing something else so I don't end up staying inside to clean my room. Today that something else was driving with my aunt to a small town about 55 miles from my home. She has a niece who lives there and she wanted someone to go with her for the drive. The rain was off and on and I took very few pictures.
We also are a travel stop spot for friends who live in Pennsylvania that are traveling between there and Maine and they were here when I got home. Getting to spend time with people is a happy thing for today. Other happy things include:
- My aunt and I took a detour on the way back and drove through a town I lived in when I was very young. We were able to find one of the houses I lived in back then. It was neat to find this house that I lived in around 50 years ago and remember little things about living there.
- We saw some birds on our road trip today. There was a momma duck and her ducklings crossing the street. Also walking in the road somewhere was a bird I can't quite identify. My first thought was a partridge because it had the little thing on its head that reminded me of the Partridge Family. However, when I try to search it up I get too many birds that don't look like what we saw as well as other options. There was also a raven on the side of the road picking up something to eat.
- All the time visiting and driving meant taking a walk after dinner to get my step count in. Yesterday marked ten months of getting at least 10,000 steps every day. That streak did not end today. I took an evening walk in the light misty rain. The house down the street had goats out that bleated loudly as I walked by.
