Vineyard

Ron, Robert and I went to the Vineyard yesterday to visit Cheryl, Conor and Pat.

The weather held in a manner of speaking: still humid but less oppressive on the island.

We figured out that Conor and Robert are almost the same age, only four months apart!

Visiting with the Rooneys is a great event:  lots of good food and lively conversation.  Cheryl and Pat served cheese, crudites, burgers, hot dogs, chicken, pilaf, Caesar salad, three cold salads and a flan that was out of this world.

My big mistake was suggesting a parking place that was $5 cheaper than the Steamship Authority lot, but almost a half mile away.  We were blocked from a convenient exit from the Authority lot and speaking for myself, were disoriented as a result.  Thanks to Ron and Robert’s iPhone apps, though, we made our way to the van.
