Yesterday

...was so perfect. Blue skies and breezy, with a slight nip in the air as the day wore on.

It was the feast of St. Lawrence, Boot's patron saint, so we grilled hamburgers.

And afterwards built a small fire, roasted marshmallows, and shot off the rest of the fireworks that were left over from the 4th of July. ( There is a meteor shower, called St. Lawrence's Tears by some, that happens every year on or around his feast. I thought that the fireworks worked well as a mini simulation of it since we have never been able to stay up to watch the real thing! ~We'll have to remember this for next year.)

It was a perfect evening.
