We decided to visit our good friends, Irene and David, for the Memorial Day weekend. We usually visit them every couple of months since Irene is one of the Scrippsies and David and I have been friends since junior high.
I wish I could say we got into a lot of trouble and painted the town (Denton, TX, which if you know anything about Denton, TX, you'd know it doesn't take a lot of paint) but we did what we normally do--and love to--and just plain hang out at the house and watch movies and TV series' together. We actually do leave the house for food and for walks around the neighborhood. David and I got a lot of yardwork completed on the first day we were there.
Of a bit of a dull surprise is what we ended up watching the most. Last time we were there, we watched the last several episodes of Fringe Season 3. This time, we made plans to watch the Firefly series. Though we watched a small handful of the quirky comedy/drama, we ended up watching several hours worth of Blue Planet.
Blue Planet.
We watched Blue Planet.
It was terribly fascinating and educational, a combination that isn't usually associated with holiday weekends typically associated with BBQ and drinking.
Lastly, so much gratitude to all the fallen soldiers and their families for the sacrifices they made to protect all of us. A Wonderful and Happy Memorial Day to all.
