Somehow this feels like the first evening of summer. I'm taking all of next week off so by the time 6 o'clock rolled around and I had my last meeting I was ready to do absolutely nothing. And that's what I did …in sort of frenetic kind of way. We went and picked up our friend Ellen picking up two really nice hitchhikers on the way. We drop them off and then took Ellen to infinity brewing to hear my friend Adam's band play. It was Adams last gig with his son Ian before Ian takes off for a job he got down south. Adam and his band were really good. They do a lot of rock covers like an excellent cover of Cortez the killer by Neil Young. One of my favorites.

I never been to infinity brewing. It was really great. First of all it was like IBM old home week in the parking lot. I ran into so many old friends. And many more retired. One big surprise was that the brew meister at Infiniti was my friend Murray who is still at Ibm. It was an amazing operation. The beer was tasty and strong and the facility was beautiful. People sat around outside listening to music while a guy cooked pizzas in a wood fire stove. Doesn't get much better than that

 

We stayed till the band was done and I had talked everyone I knew there. Then we headed out to pho dang in Winooski for Vietnamese food. Yum! Then we headed to Art's riot back on Pine Street and hung out there for a while. It Was great head walking around there people watch. Saw several friends that as well.

 

Now home and sleepy. Nice start to the holiday.
Night all, night sam
