It's been a long time since anyone just dropped by the house for a spontaneous visit. Any house....going back to maybe The Antler's Hotel in Fort Collins. So when Greg called up and said he was on his way down from Charlottesville I said "come on down". He pulled in at 8 pm and we ate Panzanella, cheese and salami, and some bread, with a little Ben and Jerry's for dessert, while we watched "Temple Grandin". That movie is so sweet and powerful, and Claire Danes rocked the role. I was hoping for a re-creation of Fort Collins circa 1985, but the movie didn't go that far.
In the morning Greg and I drove down to town and went to "the Bakery", a Belgian owned little pastry and deli and ate 4 pastries and 4 cups of coffee in the upstairs room (named "the Hopper Room", for the light)
We brought back some Decaf for Sonya and threw the frisbee, relaxed, Greg drew some pictures and found some deer teeth in the front yard. All very much like the old days.
