Mac came by to pick up some frozen chicken I got from the USDA food distribution that I didn’t have room for in the freezer and didn’t want to go bad. We sat for a spell and yapped and did a little target shooting with a 22.
I stopped off at Kelly’s to say hi and drop off her two packages that came in the mail. I also check on Stoney’s house on the way back home from Kelly’s.
At 5:30pm I arrived at Linda’s for a little going away party our little group planned. Terry, Piper, Linda and Blake, and Seimi all showed up to eat a fantastic dinner and say our goodbyes. I was put in charge of firing up the barbecue and later actually cooking the trout and these really gigantic Portobello mushrooms that tasted like porterhouse steak, yumm! Everyone brought something to add to the meal. Blake made this dessert the he used a blowtorch to melt the sugar that he sprinkled on top; that was mighty dang good, I think I had three servings of that. Piper did all the cutting of the salad and made rice and some other things like strawberry shortcake! We all had a wonderful time yapping about Ron and speculating on if Ron came back what kind of animal would he be; I think we all agreed he’d come back as a dog. It seemed to me that nobody wanted to leave and we all finally left at 11:30pm so that Linda could get some sleep for tomorrow’s journey back to Texas and her job as a teacher.
I wrote to my journal, posted it to the web and called it a night.
