at the beach with friends

----

(meanwhile, in nyc:

greg ran into a dancefest in washington square)

----

back at the beach:

janine and i stopped at an art gallery opening . . 

(lost on purpose, acrylic and oil on canvas - janine's favorite)

i saw two shooting stars saturday night, the 10th, part of the perseids meteor shower.

listening to the crickets and katydids . . 

sunday:

early monday morning:

saying good-bye to janine . .

monday afternoon . . waiting for the technician to arrive to service the oil burner . . 

reading goldfish on vacation (!) by sally lloyd-jones.

tuesday . . at the bay with jason . . 

wednesday morning . . 9 am . . last day at the shore . . 

helping jason fasten his surfboard to the roof of the his car before we got on the road home.

home again . . after hours in traffic!

happy to see greg and the cats again and to have a delicious plate of spaghetti and meatballs.
