Happy Tuesday after Easter.

Today has no particular significance, depending on how you look at it. However, for whatever reason, it seems like there are words inside of me bursting to come out. I am currently curled up in a leather chair, sipping a white mocha. I'm at my favorite Caribou Coffee, one right next to Lake Superior. Out the window, I can see the wind off the lake whip the trees around. I'm not sure that conditions could be any more perfect for writing.

To backtrack a couple of days, I had a delightful Easter. My family is way too much fun when we're all together. We had dinner at my grandma's, and then she came back to our house to play boardgames. We're all pretty competitive, but we're always laughing the whole time.

In the evening, however, I was in a strange mood. I have an idea as to why, but that's not really important. I decided the best way to deal with it would be to take pictures. And that I did. I'd like to leave you with three of those photos.
