We have been blessed with a series of perfect days. The sun shines on us and the temperature in the afternoon rises to 75 degrees. Wow! I could have used that time to prepare my property for winter, waxing the car or cleaning the house. Did I? No, I spent my day wisely. I was outside. I had a picnic on Harriet Island. The food was good or maybe, because we ate at 1:30 p.m., I was so hungry I inhaled the sandwich without noticing the taste. We watched the other park visitors at Harriet Island. Men, women, able, disabled, young, old, all colors, all nationalities, all enjoying a perfect day not doing chores; not being responsible; just enjoying one of the few perfect days in Minnesota before winter sets her claws into us.
