The long holiday weekend just wasn't long enough, but then are they ever? I was in the pool most of the weekend, floating along, gazing up into the clear blue skies and feeling the sunshine warm my face. Yes, it was a perfect summer weekend in the desert. I was happy to be home with very little on the agenda. We were invited to a few parties, which we squeezed in here and there. Koshimi, Owen and Sheldon seemed overjoyed that they had us around. Shimi in particular loves to sit next to the grill and watch me cook. His excellent sense of smell tells him there are juicy burgers being made. After all these years he's learned that if he waits long enough, staring at the grill intently, occasionally something will fall through the grill and onto the ground. He is all too willing to clean up any such grilling misfortunes. It's a tough job but someone has to do it.
