The Staycation

We didn't really plan a staycation; it just happened. I had a week of leave I needed to take; it's really too hot to go anywhere. Gasoline is still almost $4 per gallon; and we have a nice trip planned later this month. So, we decided to stick around. Here's some of what we did during Staycation:

1. We hosted and/or attended five dinner parties.


2. We spent two nights at the Farm.


3. We spent one night at the Lake.


4. I spent one morning at the ER with Mother--after a fall. Nothing broken.


5. We took a day trip to Thomasville, GA.


6. I planted more rosemary at the Farm.


7. I read The Poisonwood Bible; Tom read 1776.


8. We took Mother to the Lake for the night; got her on the boat for a nice ride.


9. We swam in the pool with Brooks.


10. I cooked Copper River salmon two more times. It will be out-of-season too soon.


11. We took a day trip to Montgomery.

Here are some photos from the weekend:
