The more side roads you stop to explore, the less likely that life will pass you by. ~Robert Brault, American writer
It’s time for a break
Things to do, people to see
I will return soon
Note: Poetry form is Haiku. I’ll be hunkering low with the Monk as Scary Boom-Boom Day (July Fourth) approaches. My daylilies are finally blooming — and aren’t they cheerful? Everybody have a safe and happy Fourth — see you soon!

Enjoy your break, my friend! And have a fabulous 4th of July!
X to you and the Monk!
P.S. Love the photo and Haiku!
Thanks, Ron — you, too (it’s hard to enjoy the festivities when they scare poor Monk the way they do though). XX
Have a good break! Stay safe with those booms!
Thanks, Dawn. Poor Monk hates the noise. It’s a good thing we’ll have the A/C on (for the heat AND for noise-cancellation!)
Enjoy your time away! I hope it’s filled with delights!
Working breaks aren’t as much fun as vacation breaks, but sometimes they’re necessary. Perhaps I’ll schedule a vacation break after the work gets done!
Oh, whoops. Well, I know about work deadlines. May your time be delightful for different reasons: that everything goes smoothly and everyone’s happy!
I’ll take that, Linda — thanks so much!
The daylilies are so bright and cheerful. Enjoy your break.
Thank you, Laurie. I’m glad you enjoyed them!
Wishing you a terrific break, Debbie.
Thanks, John. I don’t foresee much “fun” in a working break, but I’ve so many things to get done that I dare not try to keep up with blogs and work, too. Sigh. Happy Fourth to y’all!
I hope you get done what needs doing. 😊
Enjoy!
Maybe not so much “enjoy” as get work finished and off my To-Do list!!
Good luck, then! 😀
Your day lilies are so cheerful! Ours are orange, so it’s a treat to see your yellow ones.
I’m always amazed at how much one can say in a brief little haiku. You and Monk enjoy your break and i hope the fireworks aren’t too raucous this year!
Thank you, Kelly. We hope so, too. Poor Monk just hates the loud booms.
Have a lovely break, Debbie, and get some extra treats in for poor Monkey!
I think he needs puppy Xanax or something to keep him grounded and zonked out!
Happy Break!
Thank you, Cindy!
Enjoy your break and the holiday, Debbie! See you when you return!
Thank you so much!
Enjoy your break! We’ll be here when you get back!
Thanks, I hope so!!
