rain delay

Jacq & dylan returned from italy so we welcomed them home with a bbq over at their place tuesday night. We had a great spread, including a swillin' watermellon and a lemoncello nightcap. On the 4th, stephanie & I rode the coal creek trail then headed back to j&d's for another bbq, this time with the fam. Before it got dark we walked over to folsom field for the fireworks display which did not disappoint, as usual. The funniest was when some guy was trying to read the declaration of independence on stage but was drowned out by the crowd doing the wave the entire time.

Saturday morning I ran some errands with paul - picked up lauren's b-day gift (ipod nano) and a new celly for myself (samsung u540 steel blue) me steph & jacq went to the rockies game, which was delayed an hour and 20 minutes in the first due to rain & lightning. When the game finally resumed we took our seats back in the front row of the rockpile right above the fountains where joaquin met up with us. The rox went on to win the game 6-3 over the phillies. When the grounds crew was folding/rolling up the tarp after the delay the winds picked up and it took a while for them to get it under control, people where getting carried off and blown around. A similar event occurred during the game sunday when they were trying to put the tarp on the field, but this time the phillies dugout was trying to get it under control as well.

Sunday steph and I rode coal creek trail again jazzed up from watching the tour de france and robbie mckewen's triumphant come from behind stage victory. Then we headed to hillside for a belated father's day / lauren's birthday bbq complete with badminton & croquet.
