Last night, I dreamed that we were on vacation and staying at your average side-of-the-highway motel. We go down to the pool to let the kids swim and there are dolphins in it. The girls get their floaties on, grab a fin and hop on.

This week, Grandma Jane has been in town to pick the girls up from school and watch them in the afternoons while Dowlan and I are both at work. They've gone swimming every afternoon, but there were no dolphins.

How disappointing.
