Ahhhh, Michigan!

"If the lakes took, The place of the sea, If the cars drove themselves, Way to be! Opposite the trains moving in, Rivers run interstate, Michigan!"
- Sufjan Stevens, "Say Yes! to M!ch!gan!"
Every year that I live here in Michigan I slowly but surely start to love it more and more. Fall is by far my favorite season, and today is a great fall day, therefore I am in a good mood.
I put on my jeans, white t, and a cardigan along with my moccasins and had coffee on the porch. Then I listened to the Postal Service while eating oatmeal.
To top the morning off I saw a whole flock of Turkeys in my front yard today! I was a little disappointed though, because they didn't look like your teachers make them seem when you're in kindergarten. I always pictured turkeys as a hand print of red and orange paint with some feathers and a pilgrim hat...until now.

Either way, Pilgrim hat or no Pilgrim hat, it was still cool.


I am now on my way to the optometrist for an eye exam and to get some new spectacles, so watch out world! Cause Parker's gonna have 20/20 vision!
