This weekend Terry and I received company of the most delightful kind. Bob and Elaine– long-time blog friends– drove over from the Black Forest, Colorado for an overnight visit
I fixed parmesan chicken, fresh corn on the cob, and tossed salad, with store bought ice cream on a stick for desert! Then we sat around and talked and talked and talked, until Terry said—“Goodness, I need to go change the water”—in the dark, with just a flashlight to aid him.
The next morning we had bunch — I made Huevos Rancheros, served with huge plates of fresh fruit–cantaloupe from Rocky Ford, Colorado, (thanks to Elaine and Bob), grapes, papaya, watermelon an assortment of cheese plus coffee.
All too quickly it was time for them to leave.
I had to laugh at a go fast Mercedes Benz sitting right next to the tractor in our farm yard!
Friends and Family—they are the cream on the jug of life!
Love,
Linda
Your working vehicles look much more at home! I love the sound of the meals you put up, too!

Did you get a picture of the side-by-side tractor and Mercedes-Benz? That would be a sight to see! Glad you had a great visit, even if Terry did have to change the water in the dark.

What a lovely (and yummy) visit. And yes, that bright shiny Mercedes does look a little out of place. Maybe if Boomer sat in the front seat and hung his head out the window….. 🙂

That sounds like a wonderful visit! and both meals sound heavenly. The car and tractor in the driveway do make a nice contrast.
