Flying under the radar

I had lunch with some friends on Friday and they wanted to know what I thought of Donavan having a girlfriend.  Total surprise to me, especially since he has known the girl his whole life and since he has been old enough to talk he has said Lauren is so bossy.
I questioned Conlan when he got home.  He knew for over a month and said Donavan was paying him to keep quiet. 
  My sweet little boy is turning into a big sneaky teenager.  He will now be on my radar!
 

Killing Time

We had a six hour break between volleyball game. I took the boys and Sierra to Yorktown.  I had never been there but what a great place.  I was very proud of myself for finding a place that entertained everyone and I didn't have to spend a dime, except to eat!

Things that caught my eye

This man looking at this self portrait looked like the same man.  The other looked like a painting but was a 3-D wired creation

River is rising

The last time the river flooded.was.when Iwas here two years ago.  I am the Lucky Charm for some good rain.
You can see when Sierra and I went out earlier the river was still in its banks. A couple of hours later it took over.
