A mediocre opening for a forgettable film

I figure I'll have most of the day to myself, not expecting JoAnna and the boys until after 5.  For most of the morning, I type up notes from 1990 and find them disappointingly trite, although I know there are some juicy tidbits to come.  While fixing chicken wings, I sip a very tasty Bloody Mary. It's a lowkey -- there's that word again -- afternoon.  Although the temperature is in the 60s, the intermittent rain keeps me inside.  It's a bit of an adjustment once my family returns home.  The solitude is shattered.  I soon find that I'm repeating myself whenever I talk to Andy.

What JoAnna and I Found at Tiedeman Pond Nearly A Month Into Spring

On Sunday, April 14.

It was our first ponds walk of the season. At the entrance to the Tiedeman Pond trail, we stepped around q barricade and ignored a sign warning us that the path was closed due to high water. We didn't even encounter any squishiness.

Much to JoAnna's disappointment, though, we didn't spot any blue herons.
