Saturday night (delayed) On the river

Fun day yesterday… We all agreed to meet at 10 o’clock in the morning and head up to hang out on a river for the day. It was going to be hot and sunny so we knew it would be busy everywhere. Gabe found a great place in Washington state which was only about 40 minutes away… I was on a beautiful river… (The East Fork?)

We were joined by some of gabe’s friends… girlfriend Samm, Her roommate Emma, Gabe’s roommate Sean and keep his friend Taylor used to work at our favorite poke place. Really nice group for a really nice day

GabÉ had an inflatable boat and inflatable unicorn… We put those up with the car and Max and Gabe save them to our picnic place… We had to move to a new place because We needed to get more in the sun.

We hung around, eat, drink, explored… And then it was an epic game of Uno!

Around four we headed back towards Portland to prepare the party tonight… Max paddled the boat… Now down an oar that broke… And pulled it up At the put-in place

People started showing up around six…I think we had around 14 people… Diane had prepped on this wonderful food with lots of our help… We haf carne asada, grilled fish, Homemade guacamole, tons of tortillas, homemade pico to Gallo, salad and lots of margaritas !

Dang it also made a beautiful carrot cake so we had that and Ben & Jerry’s for a group birthday party of all the birthdays that were coming up

The crazy thing happened at the end of the evening… We were all looking at the moon when I was a planet off the tip… I think Jupiter… But I never washer. As I was looking up there, our friend Cody pointed at the other side of the sky and said what’s that… We were 100% sure we were having a UFO sightings… We ran out the door and looked at it was a long bar lights moving very very slowly across the sky… Very distinct

I posted it on Twitter and several other people had seen it to flying over Portland and Washington and British Columbia… We were so excited… Then larissa did a little research and it was Elon musk’s company starlink Communication satellites…

Sort of disappointing that it wasn’t aliens… But still cool to see it

… Today I’m not sure what we have in store… I guess we never do :-)

More from the day later

Nite all, nite sam
