  3. 1. Drinks with friends last night. But people talk about work far too much.
    2. I'm not sure I did a thing for that.
    3. I ordered something on line. No doubt I'll blog about it, but you'll have to wait. Not idea how it did (or will) turn out.
    4. We grilled out every night this last week. Simple, but the hamburgers turned out great - with a side of grilled corn on the cob.
    5. Beach house in NC in August. But more importantly is a visit with college friends this upcoming weekend.
