Happy Belated 4th!

This will be a quickie...

- Worked at the Museum... Full of families. Happy kids, most Star Wars knowledgeable.

- Jogged along the river. That was lovely.

- Onward to Joe & Teresa's, the kindest and most generous. Missed the softball game (booo). Found a huge number of people in their backyard! Awesome! It was like TCIF's kid brother... kinda.

- Krystal let us eat her food! We made corn! Corn is delicious!

- PG and I scurried down to Sea Salt Eatery. If you haven't been (this was my first time), it's absolutely lovely. Ellie wasn't lyin'. Right by the Minnehaha Falls - - fabulous fish, done fresh by really nice cool people. Seriously - these are good peeps, all late 20's early 30's, jawdroppingly laid back and nice. Excellent food, including a catfish po'boy which was worth the 5 a.m. heartburn.

- 'Tried a black beer, which is Brazilian. It was actually light and budweisery, but black. Cool.

- We missed the Roe Family Singers (booooo).

- Sea Salt played Bruce Springsteen on the stereo (yeaaaa!). I felt happily patriotic.

- We drove home in a happy technicolor war zone, as all of south Minnaepolis was exploding things.

Hoping your 4th was laid back and lovely. It's nice to drive through neighborhoods and see families/friends actively lounging. Making a point to lounge. Encouraging this point with beer and yard games. That's pretty sweet stuff.

More lounging! Now!

As long as it took this summer to get here, it's certainly clipping by.. but it's an okay pace so far. Let's see how August pans out. I hope July is full of loveliness. It weirdly feels like winter is around the corner, or that there's no way to enjoy summer enough. Ah well.

Onward.
