Really crisp view of the mountains as the sun rose this morning. Prep for the Presidential Debate tonight was mostly about food, drink, and games. Fina came up with the game. While the debate roared on, Jamie taught tonight's session for his God Is Good course: Exodus/Moses Part 2. Tonight's movie (for Jamie and Lynn) was Joy, an interesting movie about a single mom that develops a new mop and works to get it perfected, manufactured, and sold.
Day 200. Think of that. I fear for this country's soul. First really pretty view of the mountains for a few weeks now that all the smoke has dissipated. We visited Atmosphere Gastropub on Interquest for lunch today, first time in quite a while. It really is a foodie kind of place, and they make a great Old Fashioned. Reasonable prices, too. There weren't enough customers there today, so go sometime, soon. Lexi's been taking tennis lessons for a few weeks now. Papa and Matteo went fishing after school today. Matteo fished, Papa listened to Prager. I don't remember the name of last night's movie, and that's perfectly OK. Chiefs won!
Off to church first thing in the morning. The volunteer effort was focused on Kids Ministry today, but the weather turned so cold nobody wanted to hang around outside to chat. Vaqueros for lunch (I love the Pollo Chipotle). Tonight's movie: Set It Up (pretty cute).
Dinner is served! |
What are they looking at? |
Two puzzle day |
While Matt took some of the kids fishing, Jamie did his Parlor Car Chat session on Amtrak’s Coast Starlight and Great Lodges, a trip he and Lynn took with the Underwoods back in 2016. Meanwhile, preparations continue for tomorrow's church school program including homemade playdough. And Fina continued work on the masks for her cohorts own self-executed Homecoming Party. Oh, and Matteo caught a fish big enough to keep so he and Matt cleaned and prepped it today (with champagne, lemon juice, and seasonings) for cooking another day. Tonight's movies, How Do You Know and Like Father.
Fall decorations are sprouting up on Nana and Papa's side of the house. And still more to come and get finished. We visited three more homes on the Parade of Homes today (this is the last weekend). Horse day for Jamie.
