A memorable Memorial Day

Still catching up on a few old posts. For memorial day, Uncle Phil, Aunt Betty and their daughter Melissa came over for a barbecue. We got lucky and it didn’t rain while we were trying to barbecue, though we ended up eating inside. We made our usual mixed grill with some buffalo brats, locally grown beef hamburgers, veggie burgers, and grilled vegetables (eggplant, mushrooms, and bell peppers). We also had all of my favorite salads. Since I was busy cooking, I only snapped a few pictures.

I had my final visit with Clare this past weekend in Colorado before I move out there for good. Clare had set up our Christmas tree, but had not been able to find the lights and ornaments. I think I must have looked at literally every box (at, not through — we did a pretty good job labeling them), but eventually I found the lights. Merry Christmas to all!
