Sizzle

Summer's here. Officially.

Good times.

Did not run this morning, opted instead to swim. Caught up with a few pool pals who were doing their final long swim before their tri's next weekend. They're ready. Since they are bricking, after their swim they would be getting on their bikes for a long ride. Kudos to them, because riding in this heat is difficult, especially practicing their hills.

Finished up there, then went home and spent an hour in the pool outside.

Getting ready to spend the afternoon with family. It's my Aunt Deb and Uncle Eric's 30th anniversary. Their story is a sweet one - they met in college, had a date, it didn't go well, had a second date, that one went very well, and six months later they were married. They did a great job raising two beautiful and accomplished daughters that are a joy to be around, and are still best friends after so many years. Every couple should be as lucky as they are.

My aunt is a fantastic cook, and at this very minute she's making dinner for all of us to enjoy before we head off to hear her daughter sing in the Big Band. Yup, she's cooking on her own anniversary. That's how she rolls.

It's going to be a great evening.
