Picnic Downtown with Cassidy

Today, my youngest sister, Cassidy, and I spent the day together.

We woke up and she went with my to vote at the polls. We stood in line for about 45 minutes before I could vote. It was great to know that I was a part of such an important event for the country.

After I voted, we went straight to the dentist's office for our appointments. We both got in and out without cavities which was great.

We then went home and got my picnic basket. We filled it with some food from McDonald's for her and Subway for me. Also a big bag of chips and some drinks. Then we went downtown and parked in the Mellow Mushroom parking lot and walked through the Cancer Survivor Garden to get to the Reedy River. When we got down there, we found a rock and set up our blanket and stuff. We got out our food and then ate. While we were eating, a huge blue heron came and landed in the water next to us. We began to take pictures. Then we finished our meals and walked around taking pictures and hanging around in the beautiful weather.

We walked up to the Liberty Bridge after taking the basket back to the car and our trash to the trash. We also saw a small snake go under a rock. We took a bunch of pictures and then headed back home around 2:45.

With the time change, everything is being thrown off. It's beginning to get dark at 5 and it's almost as if it's the middle of the night by 7.

Now we're home and we went through the pictures so here are a few for you to peek at.
