Dirty Ribs (click title to view photos)

Our weekend to do nothing quickly turned into a weekend full of something. Saturday Nanny and Grampa called in the morning and asked to meet us for lunch. We packed Charlie up in the car and headed to Keene NH (the halfway point). We had lunch at the Olive Garden. Charlotte had a blast playing with Nanny and Grampa in the restaurant. She ate bread sticks, paper coasters, and tried to eat grampa's glasses. We also found out that Charlotte loves to eat lemons. Nanny gave her a bite expecting to see a funny sour face reaction. Instead she smiled and sucked the lemon clean. Yes she is strange.

Sunday we took a ride to Curtis's Ribs in Putney Vermont to introduce Charlotte to Curtis. This is where dad and all his friends ate their college graduation dinner. A big old blue school bus with Curtis outside cooking ribs on the open pit bbq. His supervisor is a pot belly pig named CJ. CJ hangs outside with Curtis while he cooks and puts bbq sauce on the ribs with a mop. We love the fact that anywhere else in the world Curtis would probably be shut down. We are glad Curtis is still there. Paul, Kurt, Tim & Dawn, and Jon rode their bikes. Jena joined us in the safe SUV. Curtis said hi to us and welcomes anyone who wants to talk to him. People visit him from all over the world. We love Curtis's Ribs!











When we got home dad mowed the lawn. Charlotte read the paper as you can see.
