That does look like it was a pleasant day, Damar.

Last night’s dinner – Boston Baked Beans.About 5 hours of prep and cooking time plus 30 minutes of cleanup. But they turned out tasty…

Have a great week, everyone.

Good day, Patty & Dave,

You are looking good again this fine day. I can’t see you but that is what I would say if I met you for lunch today. We have a friend, actually my husband’s friend, who every time he sees us, he kisses me on the cheek and tells me how pretty I look, or something else that is very complimentary. He is 100% Irish, so I know it’s Blarney, but guess what, it sure makes me feel good.

So, Patty and Dave, “you’re looking mighty fine this afternoon “.

This morning I got up early and took the camera for a stroll on the beach. I took my fish eye lens with me and have not uploaded the photos yet but it sure was fun doing something different with the camera after 23 days of being here on AMI.

Dave, Thumbs up to the crock pot of Boston B B’s. 5 hours, wow! What ingredient did you use to add a little “smoke” to them. I assume that your beans have a little smoke in them, yes? I had a $14 BLT the other day at a fine dining restaurant on the water. Being the penny pincher that I USED TO BE, I am better now, it was hard to order a $14 BLT. It made it easier when I couldn’t find anything else on the menu that looks good.
Anyway, when I took a bite of the sandwich, I have to agree, that was THE BEST BLT I have ever had. It was made with Smoked Apple Wood Bacon and plenty of it. I love the drippings on the pot, Dave. I don’t know if I ever had Boston BB’s but they sure look good.

Patty,
Thanks for starting the daily for us. I feel so bummed every time that you say that there is rain in the forecast. That was a nice welcoming image to start today’s and the week’s daily.

See ya all later,
LORELL

You guys are so good!

I actually found this picture while looking for another picture on my computer. It wasn’t one of the original Alaska pictures I processed.

These are western sandpipers in breeding colors in Hartney Bay in Cordova, AK. Actually, this picture was taken near the Henley Trail, not on the actual bay side.

Thanks. Birds don’t seem to mind me much, especially when I was buy myself. However, this time I was with a group, but they were too busy trying to eat and not get caught by the merlin nearby.
