Michelangelo was here until this morning, and we enjoyed his visit. He and I had time for a good visit before Tom got in Thursday evening, and then he and Tom spent time hiking around, working at the railway and so on. I helped them (well, I pulled on a rope and didn't get too much in the way) take down a tree in the back yard. It was a tall skinny birch, a favorite of the woodpeckers and clearly getting ready to fall over on the deck and possibly the roof. Tom had postponed doing anything about it, but with the additional help, he finally agreed with everyone that it had to come down.
Food report: Thursday I made pork chops; Friday Tom grilled chicken; Saturday I made enchiladas suizas (which Peggy loves) and she brought an apple pie (which we all loved.) Sunday night we went to eat at R Place, an Italian restaurant in Lake Delton that is well worth a visit, after which we played Ticket to Ride, the game Tom got for his birthday. Tom and Michael worked together on great breakfasts over the weekend -- scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes, sausage. This morning Tom took off right after Michael got up, so I made him chilaquiles with the leftover tortilla strips from Saturday.
And now back to normal (?) for a while, anyway.
