Today was a lazy day. A day of rest. The kind of day that where you have to rack your brain to think of something, anything to say in response to the question: "So what have you been up to today?".  Well, I ate breakfast, I read about some biodynamic gardening techniques, ....um, I identified exactly one caterpillar and one wildflower that I saw,....um...lunch was involved at some point...., and then I hung out with people and ate dinner.

Today is the kind of day I can describe in three words: (1)food (2)good people. Jessica, Walker (Susan and Franklin's son), Cameron (Walker's girlfriend), and I went to the release party of the new ASAP (Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project) Guide. It was held at the Highland Brewing Company. There was music, and a food cart, and, of course, beer.  We all lucked out on the weather; it was clear, sunny weather. It felt like summer was underway. We hung out there for a while, soaking up the sunshine and the company.  I enjoyed watching people dance to the music. At the release party, a few of us decided to have potluck at Flying Cloud.  We all gathered ingredients, cooked food, and ate together.  It was lovely. 

I think we all need days like this every once-in-a-while.  They force us all to slow the pace, take a seat, and truly enjoy each other.
