cookout accomplished

Despite the drizzly weather, a fun time was had by all at the umpteenth annual Spring Fling in Maynard yesterday. I got home in the wee hours, tired but happy. There was a ton of food, plenty of home-brewed mead, and the traditional trash-can turkey. Lots of friends from near and far, and even the next generation:

These two were betrothed in the womb. *g*

Several members of the fire tribe from Brushwood were there, so of course we had a huge fire happily crackling away in the back yard. Unfortunately, it was so grey and drizzly that I couldn't get a decent photo of it, but it was nearly as tall as I am (and I am not short).

A cute Irishman named Damien was playing Doors music on the piano and trying to get me to sing; I know a couple of lines of "Light My Fire," but that's it. It was cool to sit on the bench with him while he was playing, though. I could feel the music in my body. Carlos found a guitar and took my seat, jamming with Damien:

I got a lovely (temporary) butterfly tattoo on my wrist, which also is resisting being photographed (my camera is as bleary as I am this morning, apparently). It's all sparkly, and purple & green.

It was lovely to see everyone, especially the ones I don't get to see very often. The party season has begun!

One more "awwwwww" moment: Zack & Zoe, trying to take a nap:
