Our niece went into labor on Labor Day weekend. She was planning on doing it all at home but the midwife didn’t make it in time so our nephew delivered the baby.

Brian Williams turned seventy over the weekend and threw a party for himself at Abilene. Since he plays with about everyone in town the band on the outdoor stage was never the same from one song to the next.

The parking lot at Nick’s Sea Breeze Inn was empty today. No holiday for the amusement park though. Kids of all ages were in long lines for the water slide. Someone must have run into the street sign that we locked our bikes to because it was at a 45 degree angle. We walked out the pier and it seemed like half the world was out on one of the boats we saw coming and going. The other half was down at the beach as the temperature was somewhere in the nineties.

On the way back we stopped by Matthew and Louise‘s to invite them back for a swim. They brought beer and told us how great the “Narcos” Netflix series is. We told Louise we had seen her brother in the new Baumbach movie and how happy we were that he put a Sucicide track in the score. She told us she had just seen Dean in person at a reading she did in LA.

It was the perfect weekend for midnight dips in the pool. Probably the last time we’ll get to do that this year but who knows. Maybe everything is different now.
