MEMORIAL DAY - Thanks for all those who have served, and sacrificed, for our continued freedom.

Today was a day for treats. For breakfast, we had "puffs". These were a traditional donut made in Diane's household for years (and popular in this area) and they turned out to be very similar to what our mom made us as well. In the afternoon we did a little more shopping at L.L.Bean's and a new (to us) sporting goods store, Dick's, then went to lunch at a Vietnamese restaurant. We all enjoyed the spring roll appetizers, then John and I had a beef soup, called pho, while Diane had black pepper chicken and Roxanne had curry. All the dishes were very good.

Diane and Roxanne enjoyed watching a movie while John and I made pirohy to go with dinner. Jeff and Gina returned to the house and we all had a great evening visiting, watching TV and relaxing before everyone had to return to work the next day.
