April 3, 2013. Canyon Lake, Texas. Simple Pleasures.

Ken and I have spent two afternoons this week watching Murdock Mysteries.    Dave and Irene gave us the new discs for Christmas and we have saved them for just the right time.    It seems as if we are playing hooky, when we watch in the middle of the day.

This simple pleasure starts with a nap.  Normally we do not nap but we are both getting over our allergy sneezing and coughing  problems so we both decided to take a nap both yesterday and today.  It was a great and simple pleasure.   Then we watched two episodes of the mystery each day.   The plots are engaging plus the series were filmed in Hamilton and Toronto so we are always watching for places we recognize, which lends us added pleasure.

I had just read a review of the Murdock Mysteries in The Weekly Standard when the gift to us arrived.  I was delighted.   And I am more delighted now.  We can't recall where we left the beginning of the series but eventually they will turn up.  In the meantime, we are thoroughly enjoying the Murdock Mysteries in Canyon Lake on a rainy cool day.  It is a perfect simple pleasure.
