since we got back

It's been an easy week at home, just me and Van, no Conrad (who comes home tomorrow from a conference in Chicago).  There have been the morning walks, increasing in length from 6 point something miles on Tuesday morning to over 8 miles today.  The June Gloom has been great for the walks, though blue skies might have made better backdrops for the rare photos I am taking on the walks,

including of me. 

Van picked up to-go food from Julienne on Tuesday, and we sat outside for dinner and cocktails. 

Last night was out on the deck again, cocktails again,

ribs that I cooked for dinner.  Some television, some early nights to bed.  A nice week, and a quiet one at work as well.  Ahhhhh.
