Yesterday was one of those early spring days where everything
seems dreary. A damp kind of cold
permeates while the snow slowly recedes with the recalcitrant claws of winter
still sunk in our souls. Thankfully
March madness and a Bruins winning streak have arrived to rescue us from the
worst impact of all the filthy snow banks lining the roads.
In addition yesterday saw a late afternoon run up to New Hampshire to spend
the evening with the son, MEF, and her parents for another spirit lifting
exercise. In a startling development my
wife was running a little late which saw the fracturing of some of the speed
laws on our way up to Hudson and we arrived less than an hour after we started
out which has to be some sort of record.
It had been too long since we’d seen the MEF’s parents and
once again it was like falling in with old friends immediately. The stated reason for our trip was to conduct
reconnaissance on the restaurant selected to cater the rehearsal dinner in
August but any opportunity to hang out with these people is welcome.

If the parking lot of the restraint is any indication of the
quality of food the place offers than we may have struck gold as it was
absolutely packed. T-Bones required a
bit of wait to get our reserved table but they thankfully had March Madness playing
on several TVs and the MEF’s father started up a conversation with a displaced Michigan State
fan from Macon , Georgia

The MEF picked up on a statement I made last week about moving
to Portsmouth
based on the fertile pub crawling opportunities offered there. She concocted a plan where we all bought a
large house together where we occupied one wing, her parents another, with she
and my son in the main house. My wife jumped on the future babysitting facility
by grandparents this plan presented. It
was cool that neither the son or MEF ran screaming from that discussion (a la
my daughter (although she is getting better)).
The drive home was more sedate, time with such fun people
will do that.
