Unbeknownst to us the spare bedroom at our rental had a taxidermied bear under it. Craig and I had been in the room several times before my sister in law arrived and didn’t notice it. Then when she arrived and we went to make the bed, there was silence, a gasp and a scream. Of course this was all happening at night and thus making the “not what you expected” factor rise a lot more.

Before we left Craig and Kerry took some fun pics. Kerry has been vegan since the start of the year, so it seemed perfect to have her reading her book, “Simply Vegan”.

The weather this past June has been like living in Seattle. Ironically I just finished all four of the Twilight novels and Forks, WA weather sounded a bit cozy with all the gray days. Having now lived a month of primarily rainy days, I don’t think I could do it.

We took it easy Sunday and had breakfast together. Then headed out to see where some friends of my inlaws live, on the next peninsula over. Next stop was the grocery store to stock up on food and wine. We picked up 5 bottles of wine.

Lunch was at Joshy’s Place, which is a local favorite. It’s a road side stand that makes lobster and clam rolls and just about anything else you can grill up. We had to eat intermittently with the sprinkles of rain.

Afternoon naps were in order. I read, Craig slept, Marty read, Kerry and Kathy worked out. Later we played a game of Scrabble. I almost won, but Kathy made a big come back and kicked all our butts with a triple word score.

In the evening we had a BBQ and then cranked the tunes. My inlaws recently downloaded ABBA’s Gold album, and Kathy just started dancing. Kerry was dancing with her, and Craig and I kept the tunes coming. We had Prince, Madonna, Stevie Wonder, Sly and the Family Stone, Bee Gees and more going. There were some memorable photos.
