1. Thursday is National Walk To A Park Day. I know these celebratory days are mostly made up, but some are fun to think about. Do you live close enough to a park to walk to one on Thursday? Will you? The most famous park in the world is Central Park located in NYC. Have you ever been to Central Park? What did you think? If you haven't been is this a place you'd like to see? 

Yes there are some parks I could go to but I don't. We live at the very top of a hill and I would not be able to get back up the hill with my COPD. 

Yes, I have been to Central Park and loved each moment walking around. 

2. Something you've done recently that turned out to be a 'walk in the park'? 

I have several things to accomplish which I keep putting off. I had to do paperwork online for T. Rowe Price because when you're turning 73 you have to start collecting money from your account. 

I still have to renew my drivers license. However, it doesn't expire until next year so in the meantime I have to renew my passport. I hate stuff like this. I don't have the real ID yet. My license had expired during the pandemic so it was just a mail in renewal. 

3. Can you parallel park? Do you have to do this often where you live? 

No, I've never been good at it. Here I am with a mini cooper and I still don't want to do it! 

4. The colors of fall...red, brown, russet, golden bronze, golden yellow, purplish red, light tan, crimson, orange red, and scarlet. Are these colors you like to wear? Is this your season in terms of color? What about your home? Would we see these tones in your home decorating? 

No, I don't wear these colors. I can't think of a season for my clothing. No, nothing in the house either. 

5. What part of history do you find most interesting? Elaborate. 

I've never been a history buff. I find the history of when my parents grew up in the 30's pretty interesting and I like history in the 50's when I grew up. Those were pretty awesome times. Things have really changed since then. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

I had a lovely birthday celebration with Adam, Gabby and James on Saturday evening. We went to a lovely seafood restaurant. Mark and I had gone to Cheesecake Factory on the 3rd which was my birthday. 

I made a point of getting a photo of James and I. I go through my photos often and since I'm the one always taking photos, you barely see a photo of James and I. So I made sure to get one. 

My cards and gifts. 

I got this card from James before my birthday but hadn't shared it yet. 

James has his 6th Birthday party this Saturday. We can't wait to go. His birthday is on the 16th and we will be going out to dinner with them that night too. We have a few small gifts for him but this is what he is getting on Saturday from us.....
