today we’d tenatively decided to go visit my side of the family. but we didnt go after all.

did the usual trash dump at the in-laws and then travel into town to get fast food.
the movie hsb wanted wasnt available.

it was cold. and the sun had gone down.

i’d forgotten about all these negatives until after i got there.

so i just wanted to go home.
but while there i walked all the way to the other end of the street length rides and food venders to get hsb a carmel apple. $2 for a smidgen of a thing!

on my way back to the rendevue.. i stepped into an open store.. just to get warmed up. but with my extra clothing i started to get too warm.
