Day 276 of a Year Long Road Trip Along America’s Scenic Byways
Horse Friends
So I spent Saturday evening and the majority of Sunday with Casey, Ross, and their two wonderful children, Griffin and Claudia. The connection, as usual, is from the horse show days. Casey competed in jumpers while I rode hunters. Casey’s husband Ross owns his own software development company with another partner and enjoys cooking (more about dinner in a minute).
Griffin is a SMART fifth grader who likes Lego Robots and recently required an emergency room visit for stitches after a bicycle accident. Claudia, a bundle of energy, is a first grader who plays tennis and enjoys showing off the latest fashion. Three non-matching, colorful socks, one tied around the knee, was my personal favorite.
For dinner Ross prepared a mouth watering meal; flavorful steak on the grill, a medley of vegetables from their garden, a tomato and mozzarella salad, potatoes, and
stuffed mushrooms. Needless to say, I was in heaven!
