weekend odds & ends





Dear Dave,

Overall pretty good (sluggish) weekend. Took remi to great falls on Saturday, and it was really nice to be back on the paths that we walked so regularly a few years ago. I miss being there. It is so incredibly beautiful, especially in the section where I took the top photo. tall trees with a thick carpet of green on the ground. The cicadas were in full august 'bloom' which I LOVE!

Remi had a great time running around, and getting super mucky. A bath at home washed away all the crap she picked up.

Saturday night we had a little quick BBQ at Sheons, and all tasted terrific. I highly recommend cooking corn on the cob like we did: remove all the silk but keep the husk on, and slow cook on the grill (top on) around the sides. Yummy smokey flavor!

Sunday was DEXTER season 3 catch up. A bunch of great episodes in the middle, but the resolution was disappointing. More potential than payoff. Oh well.

Then dinner at Lee's with Brian. Beef roast, potatoes, corn, cookies. A perfect Sunday evening meal. Afterwards we all sat around his table, listening to AIR, and poured through (fashion) magazines. A moment to remember.
