24 hours


We attended the movie Whiskey Tango Foxtrot last night.  For me it was an okay movie…not great nor horrendous.  Son 1 suggested that the title was code with the initial first letters.  I don’t know if that was the intent but indeed a bit of googling revealed that whiskey, tango, foxtrot is indeed military code for wtf….and since the dialogue probably included the third word about one-third of the discourse, it makes sense.

 

This AM I walked our “woods” with Sneakers.  It was about 40 degrees so more than walk it was stop and sniff…trees, melting snow, clumps of grass, tree limbs.  We met a well-bearded man who rides his bike with a small motor on it.  Today he was towing a small trailer – bicycle-size – and he was loading downed branches on it.   As I walked by he said, “I’m building a log cabin.” Willow Creek was moving along and the ducks were playing leapfrog and honking.  Spring is coming.

 

After the movie and throughout today I’ve been cutting and sewing to complete a second LWR quilt.  The challenge is to use the fabric available and end up with a 64 x 84 top that can be tied and finished.

 


Tonight we’ll meet John for supper and follow the Hawks and the MC girls in the basketball finals in Des Moines.
