Do kids play Pick Up Sticks anymore? They might be considered dangerous. And the game is probably too delicate for these times. I remember loving it. The colors of the sticks, the finesse required to slide one out but then there were all those arguments over whether you disturbed the pile or not.

Instead of walking the last couple of days we picked up sticks on our property. The windstorm left small branches of dead wood everywhere. Our yard is clear and ready for tonight’s snowstorm. When we last walked (March 9th) we spotted these two swimmers looking pretty comfortable in Lake Ontario.

  1. This has nothing to do with this post but if you have access to Netflix, you should watch The Andy Warhol Diaries, a six or seven part series. Documentary, no actors. It’s amazing. His life from the shooting on. But basically a really well done bio.
