It’s been a pretty low-key week so far. On Tuesday, we went to Red Robin and then the bounce house in Grand Rapids, staying inside because of the heat. The following image was on the wall at Red Robin that was so compelling to me that I had to share it with you.

I went out searching in cyberia for more modernizations and didn’t find many. That said I *did* find this one of “20 Famous Paintings Reimagined With Star Wars Elements” from 2014 that I found humorous.

Granddaughter is becoming quite the athlete on the fitness course that the bounce house has. Lots of things to climb, jump off of, zip line on. There are giant cushions under them all and every hard surface is padded. I love to see her build muscles and skills while burning energy.

I wrote a poem about one conversation we had that day and am sending it out to someone on my Poetry Postcard (POPO) Fest 2026 list. The fest goes from July 4 to the end of August so plenty of time to get the poems written. This year I bought postcards from Marina, the ones she used in this year’s A2Z, with the theme of famous women. I am going to ask Marina if I can share those postcards with the poems when I share them in October. Marina, if you’re reading this, please let me know if I have your permission.

Happy Friday!
