Unexpected Treasures




Today's unexpected treasures:





  • The sun came out for about 10 minutes during my run.


  • The newer ROAD WORK AHEAD signs that are placed in roadways temporarily while there is constuction, tree trimming, utilities repair, etc. are actually quilted in the tumbling blocks pattern. Really. I just noticed it during my run.


  • Quinn, my 14-year-old daughter, presented me with a 2 1/2 page typed persuasive paper on why she should have texting. I am considering granting her request for the excellent writing alone, quite apart from the arguments she presented. When I say presented, I mean just that. It was an oral presentation and no one loves an oral presentation more than me. My, but she does know the way to her mother's heart.
