Around 6:00 pm Kurt and I walk downstairs and enter the dining room for
the social gathering. Provided for the guests are orderves and beer
(American). There were two couples already in conversation; Kurt grabbed a
bear, I an iced tea and we sit down at a nearby table to listen in.
Perhaps fifteen minutes later, the younger of the two couples excuse
themselves and leave for dinner. Kurt then engages in conversation with the
remaining couple, a pair of retirees on their second visit to St. Augustine
from their home in Jupiter, Florida. The gentleman used to work in a
television studio but it's never made clear in what capacity. I think his
wife was a teacher and the talk soon turned to our themed vacation of
haunted house hunting and later, to Kurt's career as a high school English
Teacher.
Perhaps a half our later the older couple decided it was time for dinner
and we left for dinner.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
