This life of idleness is getting to me. I keep looking at projects around the house and then I tell myself that if I start something, I will find a job and never get it finished. Or there is the argument that time spent on a house project is time I should be job hunting. I will find a balance I am sure.
Being home allowed us to attend the 105th Annual Strawberry (shortcake) Festival. This is one of the big summer events here in Winthrop. I bought some raffle tickets for booze and wine and filled the tickets out with all the family names then proceeded to enjoy the shortcake. When I say this is a big event, I mean half the town turns out. Tables are set up in the yard of the Dean Winthrop house and the barn is used for the dishing up of the BEST shortcake ever. The weather was wonderful. A warm summer night with just a bit of a breeze. 
Later that night the phone rang and the caller asked to speak to Yaar Stundza. Tom explained that would be difficult as she was running around the house with a ball in her mouth! Yes, the only winner of the raffle was little Yaar and she's too young to drink the bottle of Merlot. Dad will take care of that.
Tonight was Lobster night at the Cottage Park Yacht Club, where Tom is Secretary and we have no boat. Every Friday Night during the summer different members take over the kitchen and we have dinner.
Tom lives for lobster night! I get such enjoyment from watching Tom eat a lobster! Only my father-in-law, John and grandson, Josh could equal Tom in lobster devouring. We had a rain squall hit during dinner. You know, the kind where it pours but the sun keeps shinning. This makes for a beautiful rainbow across the ocean. It isn't easy getting a good picture in the rain but here is my attempt.
