We had a great time tonight. After all the work yesterday, we mostly took it easy today. Most of the dinner cooked itself - except for poor John having to be outside doing the cooking. He did a terrific job, and the ribs and chicken were yummy! Margaret decided to come over, and she brought some fresh green beans - already washed and snapped. We had the ribs and chicken, green beans, corn (from the freezer from last year), and baked beans (from the WM deli). Vicki made potato salad and macaroni salad, and Carol brought some chips, pretzels, and dip. And we had fresh fruit and cookies for dessert. I wish I could’ve had all y’all with us to share.
The pool will still be closed tomorrow. They’re hoping to get the pump fixed tomorrow, but who knows. I am starting to miss the exercise.
One of our swimmers just came back from a week at the beach in the Florida Panhandle. She said by the end of the week, they could smell the dispersant, and saw dead crabs covered in oil. The oil itself was expected to be there in about a week.

Look how close the huge whales are to our boat - there are maybe 4-5 whales in this photo.

Oh Mary and John - those are not nice temps for June. Weirdly, on our Monday which was also the shortest day here we got to 16C/61F.
You can send some of your heat but please keep the high humidity over there - we have more than enough as Wellington Winter's are damp.
What wonderful food you all enjoyed on Sunday evening. John earns a medal for cooking in the heat, it reminded me of my cooking our last Xmas dinner in 33C!
