They light the fires around 8:30, so after wrapping up dinner with our friend, Nick, we packed up the car and drove downtown. We lived downtown for a couple of years, and I lived on campus throughout undergrad, so I inevitably feel a bit nostalgic whenever we drive through certain parts of the area. Tonight, however, we weren't on or near campus, but Genoa Park.
We parked Andy's big red Wittenberg varsity blanket on top of a small hill next to an older couple with a dog. Nate saw older kids running up and down the side of the hill, so all he wanted to do was run up and down the hill. I love how perceptive he is. As the light gave way to darkness, he became much more interested in the fire, so we walked along the water, enjoying the music and the perfect night weather.
He was pretty exhausted, and how that he's safely tucked in and passed out in bed, Andy and I have a few moments to catch reruns of this (For years we have watched shows after several seasons have aired. There's something about being able to watch them in succession that we really like. Some of our all-time favorites? This and this. Currently this and this. We don't have cable -one of our money-saving decisions- so we have to wait for available copies at the library or if they ever put it on Netflix.) This probably sounds like we have all the time in the world to watch television, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. It's why, when we do watch shows, we watch ones that have already aired- we can watch as many episodes as possible when we do have a free moment.
We haven't mutually found a new series to watch, so we have been taking turns watching each other's current pick together. Guess who picked this?
