Sometimes I will end the day with thoughts that are
important to get out. Usually I just
write them and put them in my journal folder.
I have chosen that on occasion I will share them with you Dear Reader.
As a chilly rainy Memorial Day weekend closed I thought of
all the picnics, celebrations, and events impacted by the weather. When one lives in a place where summers are
short every chilly day between Memorial Day and Labor Day means loss for the
merchants who make a living off of summer.
One of my favorite such events is Brat Fest. It is the world’s largest celebration of
brats. It is also a world class charity
event. I have written about it often and
one can lean all they wish from the official Brat
Fest web page. As of this writing
the count for the weekend is just over 151,000 brats. The record set in 2010 is 209,376 seems to be
out of reach this year.
The weather impacted the money that will go to
charities. I care deeply about this but I
also know that the money raised will help.
I often wonder how the weather impacts things such as this in the long
term. Will a rainy weekend keep people
from including it in their plans next year?
I know that I did not go every day like I usually do and part of me
wishes I had. I know that I look forward
to it every year rain or shine.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn

who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."
