Had a great old fashion dinner at the N's home - pork chops, mashed potatoes, and butter beans. I love home cooking.
We also went to a charity cookout. St. James Plantation hosts an annual golf weekend for the military and a fund raiser. For some reason the golfing weekend didn't happen (although they announced it will happen next year) - but the picnic was nice and there was music provided by a local community orchestra.
It was JN's birthday this weekend.
I was in the NCSU bookstore last week getting some engineering grid note pads and there were some poster size photographs of State football games by the entrance. One was a panorama shot of the 2009 State - Carolina game.
Amazingly, you could see me, JN, Chip and Erika clearly in the photo. I bought it and had it matted and framed. Gave it to JN for his birthday present.
Saturday night JN and I drove in to Southport where their "Spring Fling" was going on. Had a good time chatting with folks and listening to some 'big band' music. I didn't take any photos or video - but here's a link to the band that was playing:
The Andrew Thielen Big Band
They were excellent. They played Sing, Sing, Sing. While this isn't them - it sounded just like this:
Just got back home and am doing some chores around the house.
All in all - a really fine weekend.
