Monday was an errand day with several shopping stops to replenish supplies and buy a wifi signal booster at Best Buy. It works!
Monday evening long time friend Rodger Loberg and his lady Linda came for dinner. We enjoyed old stories and new, catching up on family and getting to know Linda. I tried out my new veggie grilling basket (works great) and barbecued some salmon. After dinner we sat around the fire, made some s'mores and talked.
Tuesday we drove to Cottage Grove (about 50 miles) to have lunch with Ted and Diane Fredrickson old friends from our Winnebago days. We had a delicious lunch and visit along with a tour of Diane's gardens. She is a pro with growing things and their yard looks great.

Then it was back to the Winnebago to prepare for dinner with Roger & Audrey Dietsch. I used the grilling basket again. This time for shrimp marinated in a special sauce made by Mary. We all declared them very tasty. Then I grilled a pork tenderloin that had Squeal rub on it for 24 hours. Then more grilled veggies. Roger shared an outstanding bottle of 2006 Unti Sangiovese.
The evening ended with more time around the campfire and more conversation.
