Have a great weekend!
. I would love to get in one more beach day before the weather gets too cool.
Have a good time at your BBQ 
Saturday I met the new in-laws to be, Sunday and Monday I Bumpershoot.
My daughter (24) and her boyfriend have been living together for 3 years. They both live in a college town about 1-1/2 hours north of Seattle. Since it appears serious, I asked for his parents phone number and e-mail, and I planned to ask them to join us from Christmas to New Years in Las Vegas. So, after a couple of e-mail exchanges and a couple of short phone calls - we met. They are very nice folks. However, the whole thing just cracks me up. My daughter is not a risk taker. Her approach to live is very conservative. She has fun, but not in a rollickin' kind of way. Her boyfriend, Robert, is also very conservative in tone. He always wears kahki's and a polo shirt. No jeans. He walks very, very, straight (you know the phrase, a stick up your a.., well, he walks that way). So, I was so surprised. His parents look like bikers. They are ex-bikers. He work the black jeans, red tee-shirt, black suspenders and the black leather vest. She wore blue jeans. Cracked me up. Made me wonder out loud how we got such conservative looking kids. He, Robert's dad, answered that if he hadn't seen his son being born he would have thought the kid was switched at birth. By the way, they turned out to be very nice people and it was good to finally meet them. We've invited them for Christmas to New Years. It appears they'll join us on the New Years end of things.
Today and tomorrow we Bumbershoot. Every Labor Day weekend there is a music and arts festival in Seattle. Lots of bands, both national and local acts. We wander from venue to venue, listen to music, dance if we want, eat some, hang out in the sun. We have tickets for today and tomorrow.
I'm enjoying life a lot.
