Grillin Indoors

All my attempts to wrangle a BBQ near the Ikuno waterfalls came to naught, as Sunday was swimming in rain. Damn! I wanted to catch another giant salamander!

Luckily, one of the guest graciously offered his house, and the grill party became a grilled cheese party. Yes, I grilled up a mess of grilled cheese sammiches. Tim was magically on my wavelength, and showed up with a batch of his own.

It was a great time, and very relaxed. Aaron got to see and say goodbye to a lot of folks. A few of my favorite, party-shy people showed up, which meant a lot. And there was a lot of food, which makes everyone happy.

After the party, Aaron n I headed up to Takeno with Mari n Julius. Mari n I finally managed to beat the boys there, hurrah! Dinner was at the amazing okonomiyaki place, which was very full-circle and satisfying.
