2 days ago by aj.ameanderingmind Weather up in Blowing Rock was like this pretty much all weekend, but we didn’t care! We relaxed, talked, “scrounged” for dinner, read, drank wine, listened to music, walked around town. Only downside is Missus didn’t want to go hiking for fear of rain, but mo’ muddy, mo’ better to me!
4 days ago by aj.ameanderingmind Out walking the dogs this morning. My morning routine has been interrupted by work and life lately, but it is nice to be able to enjoy the sun coming up over the ridge on a cool NC mountain morning. I think that is why I cherish my time up in the mountains; it reminds me to enjoy the simplicity of life. #keepitsimple #ncsunrise #ameanderingmind #morningmusings

4 days ago by aj.ameanderingmind Up in the mountains this weekend (finally). We haven’t been up here in a bit, so not much in the cupboard. However a quick stop at @basilspasta for some fresh pasta and marinara, Harris Teeter for bread, and a good Italian table wine (which I already had) and we had a GREAT dinner on the back deck as the sun set behind the hills. #ncmountains #livewell #carpediem #keepitsimple
2 days ago by aj.ameanderingmind Came down off the mountain and immediately started working on the garage storage. By the time we finished we had missed lunch, so early dinner at ACME. Everything was excellent, but big for the 22oz ribeye and our desserts, dark chocolate terrine and cherry pie a la mode! .

What Do They Know That We Don’t?

Was walking today and noticed two kids meeting for the first time at a playground.. Within five minutes they were running around and playing together, laughing and enjoying themselves. A black girl and a young white boy. What do they know that we adults can’t seem to grasp?

OK, I’ll Ask…

…How does Trump KNOW that Russian meddling into the 2016 Elections didn’t affect the election’s outcome? Seems to me that fact would be impossible to quantify.

Stunned…

I am astounded by Trump siding with the Russians against his own country’s intelligence community. We have reached a low in this presidency I would have never foreseen. Republicans: your silence in the face of this event is DEAFENING.
