Travels with .....

Charley  No, the other one; Me, Charlie.  A most appropriate gift given by friends Diane & Ed from "back home" (The River House, 12.6 miles north from my present location.)  They came all the way for a delicious dinner consisting of a London Broil on the grill, baked potato with cheddar cheese, macaroni salad, sauteed mushrooms, the sweetest corn on the cob,  and cornbread.  For dessert, peaches over all-butter pound cake with whipped cream.

Ed & Diane

I eagerly anticipate reading my next book.  Comoran Strike, in The Silkworm, by JK Rowling, is nearing the solution of a murdered author, the wife of whom engaged his services.  The House of Thunder, by Dean Koontz will have to wait.  

More eagerness lies waiting in my taste buds anticipating the opaque garnet color with ripe red fruit, oak, and vanilla aromas to be offered by their next gift: 2012 Robert Mondavi's Private Selection Cabernet Sauvignon from the Central Coast.  Wine tasting notes indicate that on the palate, it’s light-bodied, smooth and easy with plum, cherry and vanilla flavors. 

Thank you, Diane & Ed; an after dinner visit from neighbor and friends, VC and George,  who stopped by.  More dessert?  How can that be?  Any room left?  Well, this is what's left of VC's pie. Recipe available upon request.  After two simple steps, 20 minutes on the grill and it's done.

A glance back at today.  A mid afternoon visit from friends, Pat & Marty who enjoy meeting Winnie and the quiet beauty of the Croton RV Park.
