Three Beautiful Things 08/16/13: The Deke is Back, Back to Billy Mac's, Back Yard Wine

1.  Strolling off the plane, pulling her rolling suitcase, tired, ready for some hummus and baby carrots and a gin and tonic, there she was shortly after 4:30 p.m., after seeing family from Chicago to New York to Virginia to New Jersey to Indiana to Michigan:  the Deke.

2.  After a gin and tonic and some baby carrots and hummus, with a few crackers and some kalamata olives, in order to properly acclimate the Deke to being back in Eugene, we rocketed over to Billy Mac's for another gin and tonic, a fine meal, and a couple glasses of pinot gris and had ourselves a good conversation.  In other words, we picked up where we left off in June.

3.  Back home, the Deke and I sat at the picnic table in the back yard and continued talking, gave the dogs some time to chase around, and enjoyed the cool of the evening.  We enjoyed a little more wine and continued to get ourselves caught up.
