Ehlana and Ethan:
We got lots of rain last night, but it’s
been a really nice day – even though we used a lot of it for doing spring
clean-up chores. Doing that work felt
like a community event, since everyone seemed to be doing that as families all
around town; so it was about as close as we’ve come to hanging out together
with our friends and neighbors in weeks.
Our day wasn’t all work and no play; and we
had fun with most of the work anyway – even when it was a bit wet and muddy to
work in the gardens. We got a lot done
today, but since those chores aren’t exciting to write about; let’s move on to
the play parts of our day. First up,
working on the canoes led to testing them out this afternoon – and that
activity will be an added entertainment option for us because we can even do
social distancing while passing other canoes or boats on the river! We only spent an hour doing that – a half-hour
upriver and then back again, but that was one of the highlights of our days.
Naomi and Aiden joined us for the canoeing
after doing chores with their own families; and then we still had time for a
bike ride before splitting up for dinner and the rest of the night. Our evening meal included grilled steaks,
burgers, or hotdogs; and then we’ve had a quiet movie night in the living room
since then. That was fun too, but after
a long work day; we were all tired too; which is why we’re heading for our beds
comparatively-early. We’re doing this update
from Ethan’s room while my Jacuzzi is being borrowed by Cassie and May, but we’ve
already had our baths; and don’t plan on staying awake for much longer.
That’s all we have for tonight, so flip the
digital page to find out what happens between now and our next update while we
get some rest and then live those adventures!
This is Ehlana and Ethan Proctor; live from
the hidden home of the Magi of the Light – and May the Magi Force be with you!
