Day Before Yesterday

Reid=Weatherbys and Rheins met here on Monday for a huge feast of salmon, the rainbow trout that Bruce my friend gave us and some fine steaks from the organic beef. It was a great meal of protein much of it done on the grill and Elizabeth cooked it. Yum. Abigail brought in some salad and we had a good visit. It was fine to see Bruce my brother in law again as he took time from the farming and the continual watering to enjoy the stories and banter of the family.

Dana called in sick and stayed until late too. He thought he would regret it, but it actually worked out very well in his work as well, making him more productive in finishing a project he has been working on and enabling him to escape some tensions. So it did not strain him further and was a fine choice.

Over these two days I've lost the details of the stories and banter.
I should have written yesterday.
I have the relaxed and delightful flavor of having family together in one room, but I can't remember too much.

It was too stormy to swim or boat. That was too bad. I remember that and the food.
