No picnic

March 28, 2024, Thursday evening, 6:22pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point, California,USA. This evening my daughter’s mom mentioned an old friend texted her today. She is the mother of my daughter’s recent best friend. Sadly, they have grown apart since starting high school at different locations. Because of their friendship we would spend a lot of time together as families, including Easter picnics the past two years. This Sunday we will all be out of town and the weather is forecasted to be stormy so, no picnic this go round. Despite the uncontrollable circumstances I feel a little sad. I enjoyed the time we spent with them and looked forward to the picnics. Perhaps next year we can rejoin the celebration and honor tradition once again.
