Frizzy Hair in Two Countries

How often do you get to stand in 2 countries at the same time?!?!?! Ahhh, I bet you could guess what two countries I am standing in, my 3-4 loyal readers, since

1. 1. You knew where I was over memorial day

2. You can use your context clues from the picture and what you already know to figure it out. (Get me out of teaching reading in summer school, PLEASE!)

3. My hair is out of control frizzy so I must be by water (okay and the fact that you can SEE water in the pic)

Okay so looking at the picture I have half my body in America and the other half in Canada (or what I like to say Kah-nan-uh-duh). I thought this was really cool because I had never done that before even though I have been to Niagra Falls several times. The sign read something to the effect of "hey, stand here and hold up the walking traffic by standing up the whole side walk and taking a pic on the bridge that leads to a new country!!" Yeah, as far as I can remember that's what it said with maybe adding in some of my own flare!!

It reminded me of last year sometime when Airjello talked about going to the place where four states meet. We were going to each stand in a corner and say "Hey, we are in four different states!!" That would be the highlight and we would thoroughly enjoy it!! That would be the whole reason for the road trip...that brief moment in time. (Can we still do that, sometime?!?!)

I don't know what my real point of sharing this pic. I don't have an inspiring thought of life, or God, or happiness with this pic. I,just for a moment, could act silly and really enjoy something that many wouldn't care two flips about. But it was my moment. I like when I get excited about something that someone else may see as ordinary. I like it even better when I can get someone else on board with excitement...to help me celebrate the small moment.

Today I needed a simply reminder that I am still me. I can enjoy the small moments even in the midst of dirty laundry that is currently being hand washed.
