Smoked a Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur this afternoon. It was fantastic.
Although I heard tons of blue jays squawking this season I didn't see one until today. It landed on Josh and Breanna's porch.
By the way, Josh and Breanna had us over for dinner last night. We ate outside on their porch. Everyone had brats except Bran. Josh grilled him us some venison which he loves.
Ada was sweet. She picked some flowers for me and put them in a jar. She also made menus for the dinner which was very cute.
Stayed till after dark. The sun's setting just before 7 pm these days. The kids made s'mores and the grownups talked around the fire. We got home around 8:30. It was a very nice evening.
Dale came out to join me this afternoon. We both had some wine while I finished up my cigar.
Lots of loud, obnoxious crows flying back and forth and squawking at each other. They went on for quite a while. It reminded me of all those mornings on Madeline Island and sitting on Dale's porch while 3 particularly bitchy crows did the exact same thing every day.
We also heard a very chatty rodent. At first I thought it was a squirrel but Dale saw it in Andrea's tree next door and said it was a chipmunk. I looked and he was indeed correct. My gosh that thing was squeaky and active. It darted back and forth and carried on for quite a while.
Listened to Chet Baker as we sat outside. Went inside around 6 pm for snacks and then dinner of leftover lasagne. I really was a lovely afternoon.
