I had to go get milk yesterday, which meant a 120-mile drive, roundtrip.
At least it's 120 miles of no traffic, though.
Poppy asked to come with me and had a great time. She chattered and sang with the music and read her book.
Benji, in case you were curious.
I let her pick out a snack to eat on the way home, so she munched her Pringles and juice (and read the ingredients on them) and finished Benji.
She's a good travel buddy.
At home, the daffodils continue to bloom.
The white ones are starting to open now.
So of course, I have some on my table.
Also, the little peach tree in the garden has flowers on it.
Possible future peach, Lord willin' and the grasshoppers don't eat it.
The row of tulips on the other side of the garden wall are better protected now that I've surrounded them with rocks to keep the dogs off of that spot.
One of the tulip crushers, looking very innocent now that he can't lie down on the flowers anymore.
There you have it! My life, snapshotted.

What else did you do besides buy milk? I can't imagine you going all that way and only visit one store.
Lovely flowers and a good boy.
I did only go to the one store, but I also got gas. It's about two dollars per gallon cheaper there than the gas station 10 miles from us, so it's not worth the trip by itself, but it's nice when I can do it. It was pretty annoying to do that mostly just to get milk, but I also got to spend some time with just Poppy and she got to go somewhere with just me, which hardly ever happens, so I consider it time well spent anyway.
I should probably note that this is a very small town, so there really aren't a lot of other stores there, anyway.
Saving that much on gas is a great bonus. ( I always do that in big city in Iowa when we go - its at least fifty cents per gallon cheaper.). And road trip with daughter- a blessing!
Lovely to have a country drive with a good travel buddy. Kathy
