Mommy - Daughty Day

This afternoon, daughter Chelsea and I took some much needed time off. We don't often have a chance to get out one-on-one; and, this Wednesday seemed as good as any for what Chelsea calls a Mommy-Daughty Day.

One of the places we like to go during the summer is Wednesday's at Whitehern, where we can enjoy music and bottomless tea or lemonade for $1. This was our first and only opportunity to attend this summer, and I'm glad we didn't completely miss out.

Armed with comfortable folding chairs; we set off for a sojourn in a peaceful urban garden; enjoyment of 1920's era guitar, violin and vocal music; and a refreshing beverage.

Today, Mike and Jill Daley's cheerful tunes rang through the trees and foliage while Chelsea and I enjoyed the ambiance, each others company, and the beautiful vintage garden setting.

Lucky for us, dark storm clouds that threatened to end the afternoon's entertainment early, managed to hold back their raindrops; and, eventually passed right by the Whitehern garden before the lovely concert was over. 

Chelsea and I returned home refreshed and rejuvenated, having once again enjoyed a brief outing, and more ready to take on what life has to offer in the days to come.

Here's to Mommy-Daughty Days! I highly recommend them.
