The Loitering List

There are two times when I'm happiest. (1) When I'm uber productive (like leaving the house in the morning knowing I already wiped both bathrooms, started laundry, dusted something, started dinner, had music practice, and got 3 or 4 people ready for the day). (2) When I'm uber idle, especially in an interesting place. And if the kids are there, all the better. It's such a thrill to just hear them talk about what's on their mind and make observations.

So while we drove last week Brent and I started putting together a list of our favorite places to loiter (not shop, but loiter). Here's a start:

Apple Hill

IKEA

The local doughnut shop

The Wild Chicken Coffee Shop

The High Hand Nursery

The Shops at the Fountains

Borders

Kate's school when school is not in session

McKinley Park

Golden Gate Park

Tiburon

Berkeley

Frys Electronics

A baseball game
