Whatever..

Today has been so-so. Woke up with a stiff shoulder, must be getting old, ha! Next on the agenda is a slow trip to work, going to wash the truck too. Called in sick this morning but am feeling better now. Back to work.

To the street...

The local businessman's association is promoting a festival of food tonight, so off to see what is available to eat.

Fun evening

We out this evening to a local celebration, sort of a promotional street faire/sidewalk sale/meet and greet of local island merchants. They were selling tickets that could be traded for raffle chances or goodies, 20 tickets for $10. With my 20 tickets I got a BBQ combo plate (ribs, louisiana hot sausage, and penne and chicken pasta), 3 pieces of good sushi, a 16oz cup of good coffee, and some pumpkin pie. Along the way I entered numerous raffles and won two items. So, not a bad night. Met some of my fellow islanders, enjoyed the night under the stars, and now home wishing that I didn't have work tomorrow, but alas I have to drag my butt in there for one more day this week.
