WOOOO! The sun is shining for real - not just the oasis mirage kind where weak sun is visible in the distance - this is honest to god early summer sunshine as seen in ads for gas grills, popsicles, beer, and even - dare I say it - sunscreen. Although it was sunny last saturday too, which was followed by a week featuring the full range of non-frozen precipitation.
I think my sister and I are going to go watch the parade! I wasn't, but then the sun is so nice it seems like I ought to. When I get back I'm going to sew and finish reading the Johnstown Flood book which must be finished by tomorrow. (no worries - David McCullough writes some exciting, page-turning, thrilleresque disaster nonfiction, I tell you what.)
INTERESTING FACTS about steel barons and associates learned so far: Andrew Carnegie was 5'2"; Daniel J. Morrell had a weird neck beard (neck only!) that puts the pdx preponderance of Abe Lincoln beards into perspective (it could be so much worse); the existence of Philander C. Knox. PHILANDER KNOX! What a name!!
