Denise's Shower

Last weekend Vicki, Lisa, Shirley, Beth, Lynn, and Patty surprised Denise by flying into town and throwing her a shower . . . Rick, and my mother called in, and I joined for a drink before the shower started . . . .



Saturday evening we went to dinner at Artu in Boston's North End . . . we had a great time, although a few of our meals were suspect. I'll go so far as to say mine was the worst entree I've been served in years . . . oh well, the company was good and that's what matters.




We went to Ryles Jazz Club for brunch Sunday morning . . . for those in the Boston area, Ryles is worth checking out . . . our food was great.



After brunch we walked around downtown Boston, and even snuck in a ride on the Swan Boats.




And, we just want to thank the girls for visiting . . . Denise and I had a great time.

More technical difficulties . . . .

So, we've had some technical difficulties at Denise and Jennings, and hence the lack of posts lately . . . it appears the problems with Blogger are resolved, but we're still having problems with the site's host.

Anyway, tomorrow I'll post some updates about the wedding . . . .

After Dinner (Star Trek Plates)


When I lived in the Albany, NY area I spent a lot of time with my grandparents. Also, my college friends and I would drive up once every few weekends for dinner . . . it really was a lot of fun, and provided a great break from school.

Anyway, this photo was taken after a barbeque (I think in the summer of 1988). We cooked a ridiculous amount of steak on this tiny grill . . . my grandfather threw pine cones in with the coals, which gave the meat a woodsy taste.

The other thing is that my grandfather collected seemingly everything . . . and there was this phase where he collected plates . . . you know the kind, with celebrities, TV characters, etc, painted on the plate. In the back of the photo you can see Chekov from Star Trek . . . needless to say it made for interesting decor.

Miami

I know some folks attending the wedding will be visiting Miami for the first time. The NY Times has a nice article on visiting Miami . . . you know, what to do, where to eat & drink, and where to shop . . . .
