Daughters

....of a certain age seem to have company over all the time. I'm a very private person - one who never gets privacy!

I've always cherished a certain amount of solitude. Fortunately, with the good weather coming and daylight savings here, the means is at hand. On Thursday night, my younger daughter and my wife go off to girl guides, and as the weather gets nicer, I spend that time walking on the trails of Pine Grove Forest. I sometimes ski it in the winter, but I really enjoy watching the world come back to life.

I wish I had done that walk tonight, but it was grim and drizzly. But how I'd like to be on my own with my thoughts at times.
