Thurs 6 Oct

Not noticeably cooler yet this morning, but definitely heavy grey skies. Had a good time at the Loggers and Lagers dinner last night. We had a table with the Beckers and Vicki Billings and a retired biology prof named Sol. Conversation was difficult before the meal while the bluegrass band was playing as they were quite loud (though very good), but we were able to talk more during dinner. Scott Rockman provided a very ample feast of pulled pork-filled potato skins, jaegerschnitzel w/spaetzle and red cabbage, and bourbon chocolate pecan pie. We shared some of our beers and brought the others home to avoid drinking more beer than we wanted or was good for us. Beckers had some clean leftover containers in their car which they graciously shared so we didn't have to eat more than we wanted. I plan to put some of our leftover containers in a bag in the car today so we have them with us when we need them. I've collected some in a bag, now I just have to remember to put them in the car. Food: 7:50 am Kouign amann, 102 g blackberries, coffee
