Congrats on that score. I got shirts, too. Size M, as has been the
case for years, in spite of the beer. Got a swim suit, too.

And Paul McCartney's. And Evergene's. I sure hope the chiles get
past the Mounties at the border. The local postal clerk didn't know
if there were rules about things like dried chiles -- i.e., mad chile
disease scares. He said it should take four days to arrive, but that
was five days ago.

Last night D and I ate at a friend's house with a small company of
orkers, some of whom are not cows. Chicken on the grill, guacamole,
quesadillas, homemade ice cream, champagne, wine, fruit salad. Good
company, good food.

Today, D and I will drive to Ponder to feast at DaveR's Ranchman's
restaurant. Steak, that is. I'm looking forward to it.
