I hope.

I'm sitting out at one of my favorite summer perches on Bleeker St in the village. It went up to 86 degrees today. I spent most of that time stuck in the office, but I'm out now, which is all that matters.

This weekend was pretty great. We went to the first bbq of the season Saturday evening I got to see a bunch of friends I hadn't seen in way too long. I have a couple shots on flickr, but sadly none of our hosts, who were juggling hosting and parenting duties.

Then Sunday, Tammi ran a race, where she once again broke a personal record, breaking the 10 minute mile - after running 8 miles the day before. She's incredible.

I ditched out this time and spent the morning shopping in the neighborhood. (I bought groceries, including many braising meats. Suddenly the weather is less accommodating to such things. I suspect half of it will end up in the freezer tonight.)

In the afternoon we went to Carroll Gardens and hung out in the garden at PJ Hanley's drinking beer with Tammi and her knitting friends from work.

I'm completely ready to spend the next several months like this. It's supposed to cool down for the rest of the week, but so long as we're out of the cold, wet, 8 inches of rain in 36 hours woods, I'll take it for now.
