Thinking of "roads" this morning. First, it was a choral selection based on the Robert Frost poem, Two Roads and then the Gaelic poem,

May God be with you and bless you;
May you see your children’s children.
May you be poor in misfortune,
rich in blessings.
May you know nothing but happiness
from this day forward.

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the warm rays of sun fall upon your home,
and may the hand of a friend always be near.

May green be the grass you walk on,
May blue be the skies above you,
May pure be the joys that surround you,
May true be the hearts that love you.

It is a good day because I am having supper for lunch with the youngest child at 11. She always gets the vegetable calzone and I get the spinach.

Soccer practice went well last night. My grandson took my advice and practiced his goal shots instead of always passing. I never know if I have his attention...LOL!! I have know him and his sister since they were born early at 27 weeks. That they survived is a miracle of medical science developing synthetic surfactant.

Another grandchild came in second out of 100 in his cross country race. Another grandchild sent me a text asking if I knew Dolly Parton had died. I said I did and she asked if I was sad.

Speaking of Dolly, I heard her rags to riches story so many times. It resembled the same stories my grandparents told of their childhood with so many siblings.

Could be Dylan’s inspiration for “Forever Young?”

So these popped onto my TikTok feed today and it gave me a right good belly laugh.
These falls right into my wheelhouse and turned a mundane day at work into a cracker.
I want one for Christmas ha ha.

Managed a great deal of prep on the wooden surrounds above the windows of our conservatory, removing flaking paint and keying the surfaces. Also applied one coat of the waterproof paint to one of them. More progress tomorrow, weather allowing.

Spent some time in the pm sorting rolling stock for the layout that is going out on Saturday, plus running several locos on the test track that hadn’t seen the light of day for months.

Pretty satisfying all round.
