It’s been a whirlwind of a Memorial Day Weekend…
We went out Friday night, met Jennifer & Sean for some wings at The Keystone Pub, then we all went up the street to meet Yana and her boyfriend Evan at Big Woody’s. The food didn’t agree with me — don’t know what it might have been, I made poor food choices at both places — but we had a good time.
On Saturday Anne and I got in a good ride: we went to Easton to help CAT with a booth at the big bike race celebration (in other news, Easton now has an annual “Twilight Criterium” on Memorial Day Weekend), but we got into town just before the rain started and we were trapped at the Easton Market for about two hours while it absolutely dumped outside. Oh well, coffee and bakery items, and people-watching, and then Mr. Lee’s Noodles for lunch… Scott and Jennifer C eventually joined us after the CAT booth closed up, and we all took advantage of clearing skies to bike back together. We got home just as the next downpour started.
Later we went over to the Rose Garden for the Saturday Evening Concert. We saw Larry & Joyce, Mark & Sarah, and a whole bunch of other people including tons of little kids splashing in the puddles. We ended the night at our neighbor Josh’s fire-pit, along with with neighbors John, Matt, and Scott & Kellyn.
Sunday was another ride for me, north on the towpath to explore the improvement work they’re doing. (Looks good, but I’m going to miss those wilder paths.)
Now we’re getting ready to head over to Somerville to watch the big annual bike race with Joe & Laura and hopefully Ben.
Enjoy a safe and happy Memorial Day! Remember those who gave their all.
