The summer is heating up here in Kodiak-temps in the 70's for several days in a row. Just heavenly!
Last night we had friends over for dinner to wish Alisa, Mike and Elias well on their way to Australia. They are planning on leaving Saturday. We brought our dining room table out on the deck and enjoyed the meal with a warm breeze-not a common occurence in Kodiak!!
Mary Jane made a pitcher of mojitos, for the main dish we had elk burger burritos and Patty Mahoney made fabulous rhubarb strawberry pies. The best ever! She is amazing with pies.
Music played as we laughed and toasted to Mike, Alisa and Elias. On one toast Dan Urban broke his glass on mine. Pretty funny. Thats never happened to me before! Its something you always worry about happening, but it never does-until last night!
I wrote a poem for Mike, Alisa and Elias and Dan Urban wrote a limerick-I'll scan them and share them on a future blog entry.
Hard to believe they're going to head out on Sunday. This trip is something they've been talking about for years and its fun to see a dream of theirs turn into a reality. Makes you realize you can do anything you set your mind to!
