Making the ordinary, delightful

Yesterday I had to drive to Harrisburg for some CK meetings. After leaving at 7am, sitting through 8 hours of meetings then doing a little shopping, I started for home. I had my Starbucks Awaken tea in hand, I made some phone calls to coworkes and home, and then settled in for the rest of my drive home. I turned up the radio to find the soothing familiar voice of Garrison Keillor and The Writer's Almanac. If you know of Garrison, then you will know what I'm talking about. The poem I believe was Ham and Cheese on Rye, but it frankly makes no difference; Garrison seems to make the ordinary, delightful and the absurd, hysterical. So even though it was a cold night in March, Shamokin Dam was I suppose......nice. Be well, do good work, and keep in touch. ~Garrison Keillor
