Slow day that ended with a great dinner

Wednesday we soaked our heads - these two introverts have been mighty social on this trip.  We needed a quiet day so we'd be ready for our dinner guest, Chris Moran (whose son Sam and his girlfriend Hannah stayed with us just before the pandemic shut down - see Fun in Gowanus post from March 12, 2020).  More great conversation and this time we remembered to get a photo:

It’s been interesting this trip seeing so many old friends. We're all around the same age so there’s been lots of talk about retirement, making transitions, losing parents or other loved ones, pondering what the next phase of our lives will contain. Especially after being isolated for the past year or so, there’s a longing to make sense of it all and to understand how each of us is negotiating the changes.
