Day 1321: Near perfection!

A lovely day!  Sunny, warm, mellow and busy!  Mowed the lawn, baked cookies and brownies, prepared pulled pork, made southwest pasta salad, swam a mile, drove to Buffalo to pick up Justin and Kaoru, served dinner, cleaned up, visited, laughed and told stories.  Then we wrapped up in towels and quilts, lay on the deck, and watched meteorites shooting across a cloudless sky.  Tomorrow, more family arrives.  So very grateful for our many blessings, but I just wish Colin and April could be part of the festivities.
