Soothing Sunday

In a hectic world, it's nice to reserve at least one day a week for things that soothe the soul.When I was young, Saturday was the busy, "get-everything-done" day.  While Sunday was the day to relax.  We took lots of family drives on those childhood Sundays and explored lots of the backroads around home. 

Soothing Sundays are about regrouping and spending time with family and loved ones.  That's exactly what we did today.   We took a leisurely Sunday drive and enjoyed the scenery and each other's company.    We drove up the Washington side of the Columbia Gorge and crossed the river at Cascade Locks.  There we patiently stood in line for a huge, small ice cream cone with "frosty swirl" flavoring at the Eastwind Drive-In.  It was worth the wait.
