Everyday is a good day

Word for the day. Densho is a Japanese term meaning "to pass on to the next generation," or to leave a legacy.

I appreciate everyday knowing I didn't have to go through what my family went through when they grew up. I celebrate that I've lived past the age of three when I almost got picked up by some strangers in an old Chevy when I got separated from my parents at the Boardwalk one evening. I'll never forget the biker couple telling me that they would help me find my parents. With the rear car door open they told me to get in. I ran into the crowd knowing that was not going to get me home. To this day I'm a bit weary when my kids go on a field trip to the Boardwalk without me.

Never thought I'd be so happy to see this

After 40 years of getting woken up to loud music from people picking up their mail at all hours, less than a week ago another 3:00 am driver blasting their radio and getting the mail, cars driving up the wrong side of the road, cars driving on our front yard plants, they are going to move the 8 mail boxes where they should of been placed 40+ years ago. Oh joy. All the neighbors are over joyed and are looking forward to the boxes moving. Thank you the the Aptos Postmaster for listening and getting things done.
