CIRCLE WITH A DOT

#3goodthings #ThreeGoodThings #photography #cruise #caribbean Friday, May 221. Our glorious sunny spring/summer weather has returned. Time to haul out le parapluie️ for the patio and eat le pamplemousse. (My 2 fave French words.) 2. Ubered to/from the hairdresser without dragons, pterodactyls, or zombies. Gas is $7 here, which makes the decision to donate my car a sane & happy one. 3. Vagabond son & DIL sent pics (below) from their cruise, and Twin B & spouse leave for Japan tomorrow. ️️ I am SO content to stay home!
