It was BBQ night with the gang. Good burgers, good dogs, and good conversation. I’m so glad we can hang with friends again!

Sorry, the Olympics have me engrossed this evening. Swimming and diving are two of my favorite Olympic sports. Can’t wait for the Velodrome events.

This evening we had a goodbye dinner for one of our band gang who is moving away this week.

I’m not sure I would… Continue reading A Shot of Penicillin
