back again

That was a horrible experience Jacky and I am happy that it turned out OK. We lost track of a two year old at out last family reunion at the beach and it gave us all what seemed like hours of panic when in reality it was about ten minutes. He could have found a round about way to the ocean by climbing a dune. Luckily we found him in the front yard of a neighbors place. He had found a way out of the yard that we didn’t know was there.

I am reading Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout. It is a group of short stories that all take place in a small town in Maine and Olive, a school teacher is featured in all of them. She starts out working but then retires. this book is a Pulitzer Prize winner and very popular right now. I have heard tell it is the darling of book groups. I am enjoying it. She is a beautiful writer.
