Just a nice evening having some dinner up at Dad's house and watching the World Cup Final. Bear's on window duty. Spain went on to beat Argentina. It was only 1-0 but Spain dominated the whole game.

These Flowers Are Jerky

 

A unique birthday gift from my kids out West, Casie and John are always very thoughtful!

50th Wish Made

 

 

 

I turned 50 today. Mari got me my traditional "cake". One more trip around the sun! I know 50 is supposed to be a big one, but I don't really feel much different, nor am I have an existential crisis. I'm pretty healthy (heart defect and single kidney aside), got a wonderful family, a job I like. Setting aside the political, I got it pretty darn good!

 I was coming back home down Saunders Ferry Road when I came upon a line of cars. I didn't know if there was maybe construction or a wreck and then I spied a line of ducks young and old crossing the street. They just kept coming, and coming, and coming. There must have been fifty of them. And we all sat and patiently waited for them to cross. Sometimes people are good and kind. Even in BFT.

It's Rainiering Cherries

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After being introduced to the culinary delight that is rainier cherries on our recent trip to Washington, we found some at Kroger today! We don't know if it's a karmic coincidence or they have them often and we just never noticed, but here they are!
