Here and There

While Anna and Eli were here, we had several little local trips.
We walked and rode bikes to Henry School's playground one day.

 
Another day, we went to Faust Park for the carousel (the same one I rode when I was a child--new location) and Butterfly House.
 The kids loved the butterflies. . .
 Finding them in the brochure and. . .
 On Mommy's head!

Between Two Worlds

Most of my life, I've considered it fortunate that I was just ahead of the Baby-boom. Generally, the Baby-boomers were born between 1946 and 1964 after the fathers returned from World War II. It was a huge population explosion that has reverberated through American society.

This blog will be part history, part memories, part reflections of a retired teacher, but active "Senior". I have always felt like I straddled two generations forming a bridge. Sometimes I think like a baby-boomer, but sometimes I'm locked into my parents' Depression era thinking. I'm a dichotomy of two eras. But, I'm always ready to try something new---so here I am dipping my toes in the water of Blogworld.
