I chatted with my friend Russ for a while yesterday morning, then made a quick trip to Lincoln. By the time I got back, it was almost dinner time. Every Wednesday is cook-out night in the town square. Hamburgers and hot dogs are offered. I think who the sale benefits rotates to different groups. Last night it was the Seward high school band. As we stood in line, everyone said hi to Lauren. I felt like I was standing next to a celebrity.
My parents and Harold and Beth and kids were there too, as was Deborah. We all ate together on the courthouse lawn.
The extra child in the picture is Tara’s friend.
The courthouse has a spiral staircase on the side of it. You can see it in the picture above. Lauren went up and got a picture of our picnic layout:
I wore glasses in the afternoon because my left contact felt dry all day.
I’m so glad the weather cooled down by then – it was the perfect night for a picnic! The hamburgers were delightfully non-overcooked, too, which added to the pleasantness. Good company, good food (thanks to Beth’s amazing cooler)!
Awesome Aerial View, Too!!! 🙂
