Aunt Jean wasn't feeling well yesterday morning. She had not slept well the night before. I also think that everything was catching up to her. She felt better after some rest. I took her over to vote and then her son-in-law came to stay with her so I could go down to MD to vote. The polling place was in the high school. There were two lines and they were long. One was to sign in and the other was to wait for a voting machine. This place had seven voting machines that looked like computer terminals. When you signed in, you got an access card and that was put into the computer like a debit card at the ATM. Someone escorted you to the machine and helped you get set up. I chose the large print so I wouldn't have to put on my glasses. Then the lady left. I went through each page that had several candidates on it and marked off the ones I wanted to vote for. At the end I pushed the screen where it said "Cast Ballot". I saw my niece at the end of the line. She had parked next to my car and the dog barked at her. She said, "Hello Dog." Then she saw it was Danny Boy and said, "Danny Boy what are you doing here?" She knew I was taking care of Aunt Jean and didn't know I had come back to vote. Everyone at the polls seemed excited to vote.
This is a beautiful home here at Aunt Jean's. The family room has window out the back and side with views of trees and the lake. I'll take some photos when the sun comes up. Fox, deer and birds are regular visitors to the back yard and we are only a few blocks away from downtown Media. I think the fox has a den just steps from the back door. There is a rock with a hole dug out under it that looks as if a fox could fit in it. I'm not sure because I took Danny out there and he didn't sniff at the hole. There may have been too many other trails to sniff.
