Last night I had a weird dream. Yes, again. I had a dream I was telling my father (who has been dead now for 18 years) all that I "lost." I was in the Kirby House pointing to everything I had to let go. I was crying deeply as I was telling him this. I guess maybe subconsciously I needed to "get it out" to my father.
This was a really good week for me. The weather was awesome, work was awesome and the weekend was awesome! On Wednesday I had volunteered with work to help clean up a park in Grand Rapids. It was a beautiful day! I did painting, pulling weeds, cutting down brush, etc. It was real nice. The best part was work paid us for it and I got to get out two hours early (because I started work at the park two hours earlier).

On Saturday Friedl, Drew and I went to downtown Grand Rapids to venture through the "Art Prize." None of us have been to this and this is the fifth or sixth year of it I believe. Absolutely amazing how this event has grown and how it is pulled off. Grand Rapids is a great town with so much growth. We only spent about two hours but could have spent at least two full days to see everything. Of course we went on the most beautiful day of the season...a Saturday with sunny skies and temperatures in the low 80's. It was such a festive event with street music, street performers, art venues, food, and people watching.
