I enjoy writing The Happy Things blogs. Each week I try to post 3 things that create happiness in my eternal Now. There will be apparent repetition but Now brings new and unique happinesses even to what seems old.  

1.  Jake’s Fish Camp 
I visit here every time I’m in the area.  Jake’s is a unique cultural experience on the banks of the Alabama River:  live music, local bands (I heard the River Rats), t-shirts, food, beverages, fishing, and a boat launch. Good times. 
And, as an added bonus…CAMPING

3.  Latte
There was a personal latte shortage for a couple of months.  I visited a coffee shop yesterday after this latte drought.  A good latte is a thing of beauty and tasty too.
