Saturday

We are sleeping in the back bedroom, as always. At Dads. The back bedroom is the hottest and coldest room in the house. Depends on season. It’s summer so it’s hotter than hell in the room. The outcome, can’t sleep well. Just too hot. So we did not sleep in.

Saturday morning here in Visalia is about the same as at home. Coffee, food, newspaper and a shower. No different. Except the coffee is bad, food ok, and the shower is awful.

Spent the morning sitting around and talking and having the coffee and breakfast.

Once we were all set, time to go to the store. My Dads house never has the supplies we need. So go to grocery, butcher, candy store, and liquor store. Lots of things to get.

Then home where we had charcuterie and cocktails. Watched some TV (Dad does not have cable) and sat around just hanging out.

Emiky bakes a rhubarb cake for dessert. I got the bbq going. Dad has a pos Weber which is difficult to control but you work with what you got. And I had five pounds of ribeyes to grill.

I managed to grill fabulous steaks and dinner was great. Dessert was great.

After dinner we watched a little more TV and hung out. It’s what we do.

Went to bed near ten. Into the hot room. Slept poorly. Oh well
