In addition to the Magnificent Seven and the Longmont Yahoos, I have a local group of board-game friends and enjoy spending time with them. (Yeah, I guess I play a lot of board games!) Today part of the group got together to wish bon voyage to Brian and Marie, who are heading south for the winter. Like many people around here, they love Montana summers but aren’t fans of the winter. They have grandkids in Las Vegas, and that’s a big draw… as is their modest little home in Arizona.
We’d planned to have dinner at the Sitting Duck, but found out this morning it’s closed for the season (another bummer about summer versus winter around here). That meant the old fallback, Rosa’s.
Regardless of where we ate, we knew the food would be good and the company better.
The funny thing is that we’ll see these two in a couple of weeks, when we meet up with them in the Caribbean for a cruise. And on the cruise we’ll be– you guessed it– playing board games.
