My Boy

...in his room, ie the caravan.

Makes me very happy when my kids (and grandkids) read books. You can get entertainment and information in lots of other ways, but there's something about the sustained concentration required to read a good book, the immersion in another world, the way it forms your mind, and how you can then talk about it with a fellow reader...

Good, peaceful day. Mike has started tiling the bathroom floor.

Gratefuls:
- our vizinho, Rodrigo, stopping by on his tractor for a chat
- so much beauty walking into town, and that I could, once more, after almost a year, walk beside the castle
- the smell of baking bread, which Paul has made for tea
