And I sprayed some unwanted weeds in the flower beds.
Yesterday morning I put out my American flag and then I dragged out the smoker. I drove down to the grocery. I threw the stuff for a perfect Memorial Day dinner in the cart.
Around noon I got things started. By supper time it was all ready; pulled pork (from a small pork shoulder), baked beans, cheesy potato casserole, and corn on the cob I cooked in the husk on the grill. Sunday we picked up some strawberries from the farmers market and we had strawberries on pound cake for desert after I washed up the dishes.

For the birds.
The wife has a "summer" wreath on the front door. As I walked up on the porch I saw a bird dart from behind it with a flutter. Sure enough, there was a nest. I grabbed so gloves and pulled it out. Then I saw movement and the remains of little blue shells.
Crap.
I carefully put the nest back behind the wreath. I told the wife to be carefull going out the front door. We will shake the door before opening it so the stupid bird does not fly into the house.
Birds, bunnies, chipmunks, squirrels, racoons, foxes, and coyotes -- the 'burbs are teeming with nature. And that is just my tiny portion.

Saturday Smiles
No, Alice Cooper is not going to growl out his hit tune, but school is out for the summer. The oldest granddaughter is moving to middle school and had some friends over for a slumber party. As a consolation prize the youngest came to spend the night.
Luckily she views it as a good thing to come o er and is overjoyed to get all of the attention. We went to her favorite restaurant for dinner (The Old Spaghetti Factory) and then came home and watched a movie.
Life is good
