While Lou had been felled by a stroke some 5yrs ago, and living in an "assisted living" home, his loss was still hard to take.
Board meetings and the like, run back home (almost always a 3.5hr drive) for my civic responsiblity of Jury Duty ... and got to the Courthouse only to learn that the trial had been postponed.
Ah well, took the rest of the day to attempt to make a dent in massive backlogs of cleaning and sorting ... well into Friday evening.
This morning we started off with a visit by a pair of loons (see top right), then off for fullfillment of a pledge to take more hikes.
Still got to trim down the lbs.
Then off to nearby town of Empire for :
Fun and a beautiful day, although a bit cooler than necessary ... low 60's but hard blue skies.
Got to sample various dishes from Asparagus Brats to ... "Tempura" Asparagus :
Followed by sampling of a couple dozen entries by local folk in a "cookoff"
Asparagus!
All in support of local farmers.
We often use asparagus a couple times a week.
