Some of the friends who had come up awhile back and worked in my yard were here today for a visit and dinner. Another friend from up here who knows them joined us. It was a fun day and evening.
It was triple digit in the valley and only 90 degrees at my home. We munched on appetizers, drank mango/banana margaritas and enjoyed the evap' cooler for a couple of hours and then, as the sun went down, we enjoyed the temp falling as well. By dinner time it was cooler outside than in so we moved out to the back deck. Grilled salmon filets & chunked up veggies along with a rice pilaf salad and a bottle of Barefoot Pinot Grigio made for a very nice outdoor summer dinner which we topped off with chocolate strawberry shortcake. Yummmmmm!
It was a perfect mix of friends who really enjoyed each other's company and dinner outdoors in my mountain setting. Good friends, good food, good time; can't ask for more than that.
They called me when they got home. When they left my house it was down to 74 degrees here, when they got home an hour later the valley had cooled to 90 degrees with an expected low tonight of 74. I love my mountain home!
