Practicing for Summer

Saturday, May 15, 2021

The gorgeousness of the day has continued into the afternoon which makes it perfect for a cocktail hour cigar.  

It's about 70 degrees out and partly cloudy so when the the sun's out and you're directly in it it's quite warm. 

However, if it goes behind a cloud a light jacket isn't uncomfortable. 

Dale and I are both quite aware that his time left here in town is rapidly melting away as a long camp season up on Madeline approaches. We're grabbing onto some of the nicest days to spend in the yard, listen to some music,  and grill so we get something of a sense of summer in the city before he's gone for a couple months. 

I drank some special edition Hendrick's which went really well with my La Gloria Cubana cigar. Dale joined me and drank red wine. He only had to move his chair once to get out of the drift of my cigar smoke as the direction of the wind decided to change. 

Dale grilled some burgers and asparagus for dinner. He's quite the grillmeister.
