My post "Thinking of you Misty M****, nourishing my dorkness - my LOVE of CHAIRS! 🙂"

We used to visit the DMA regularly, especially enjoying the First Tuesday Youth programs. Lol, The Panda Chair was a favorite.

2020.09.30 Yesterday 

Yesterday we enjoyed a fun virtual field trip to a local gourmet popcorn shop. We even got to enjoy samples during the tour (picked up this past weekend). We read our two popcorn picture books afterward. Then the girls shared more corn information they learned from other places.  We watched popcorn drawing lessons and listened to "popcorn" music on YouTube. We enjoyed it all so much we decided we would celebrate National Popcorn Month (October) with more popcorn and new to us recipes. Crunch Crunch Yum Yum

Today 2020.09.29

Weather was sunny with a high of 80. Enjoyed a relaxed morning, swimming in the afternoon. Water was cold, not cool. Eleanor was the first one all the way in and waved her sisters in. We were the only swimmers the entire 90 minutes we were there. At some point one women can in to tan. We enjoyed having the space to ourselves. The expected warmest day of the week is tomorrow, we plan to go back for another swim before the neighborhood closes for the season (this weekend). Guinny assembled a charcuterie board for us all for dinner. Yummm Yummm

Today 

We planned to enjoy some sunshine and water at the local splash pad. But the weather was overcast and cool (lol, 60-70s). Wonderful but not for splashing. So ended up opening our windows and turning off electronics and wrote to our penpals this afternoon. We will be mailing out 16 letters/cards tomorrow :)
