Happy Saturday!

Congratulations, Bridge! Great work! I hit a hole in one once while playing putt-putt golf. The one time I actually hit a bucket of golf balls, I whacked a seagull out floating in the water, so I figured that was probably going to be the pinnacle of my entire golfing career and I just hung up the clubs at that point.

Not much to report here in Boise. Matt worked a very early shift this morning with "Stuffy the Wonder Deer," aka Fish & Game's deer decoy. They got some dullards to come shoot it, and when the game wardens all popped out of the brush, the shooter got so excited that he accidentally shot a hole in the floor of his buddy's truck. I'll bet he's embarassed.

It is a beautiful fall day. We've done a little work in the backyard and Matt just completed what is probably the final mow of the season. Still no hard frost in our forecast, so we're hoping the tomato plants can limp along for a while yet and maybe we'll get an actual harvest. Maybe. Speaking of tomatoes, I smoked some last weekend. (No, not like that.) All I did was cut romas in half, scooped out the seeds, and put them skin up on the smoker for a few hours. They are GREAT. They'd be wonderful on an antipasto tray or on pizza. I'm going to make smoked tomato & potato chowder with bacon for dinner tonight.

Wish you were here!
Love,
Casey, Matt & Freya
