For Memorial Day we decided to host our own BBQ at Rosa's house.
We got up and went shopping for food, came home and started cooking. People started arriving at about 1pm. I didn't get stuck cooking for this party so I got to talk to everyone.

I decided to get up and write instead of trying (usually unsuccessfully) to fall back to sleep. Mornings are the only times that I will have free time to myself on this trip.
