On my way to ALDI this morning I thought of my dear, late mother.
No, not due to usually calling mom on my way to some destination to ask if she wanted to ride along.
No. Today I thought of my dear, late mother on my way to ALDI due to remembering mom's penchant for reciting poetry.
Such as on a day like today mom would wax poetically saying "rain rain go away, come again another day."
In her later years mom did not develop a lot of fresh material and tended to repeat her oldies but goodies.
In the above rainy photo documentation we are driving south on Taft Boulevard with the MSU Fantasy of Lights ongoing installation on our right as we drive by. Due to the cold rain not much installing appeared to be going on today. There is still plenty of time to get Christmas up and running in time for its post-Thanksgiving debut.
Due to the ongoing inclement weather, and anticipating much worse with the coming winter, after ALDI I went to a shoe store and got myself a pair of winter weather ready shoes. In Washington these type shoes were known as waffle stompers. I do not know if that is what they are known as in the South.
What I do know is I am now ready to stomp waffles in deep snow...
