Reunion with Alis Glazier Headlam
Following her return from a 2 week trip on Jamaica, Alis, Pete and I were able to meet in Middlebury.
My childhood neighbor.
Her sister Sue and both her parents graduated from Middlebury College. I promptly suggested we meet at The Storm Cafe. Once again the food was super! I had vegetable soup and a marinated artichoke hearts sandwich with asiago cheese, roasted red peppers, carmelized onions and sundried tomatoes with a balsamic aoli on chibati bread. 
Alis had the special portebella quiche and Pete had slow-roasted Jamaicin pulled pork with a Caribbean barbeque sauce with red leaf lettuce on a honey whole wheat wrap with pineapple salsa.The three of us shared this most decadent brownie sundae for dessert. A little rain added to the excitement but it blew over quickly and we stayed dry under the awning.

Dinner at Shirley's
We had a wonderfully warm visit with Shirley, Liz and their longtime friends, Ann and Tom at Shirley's country farmhouse on top of the hill in Richmond. Tom was on his way to the Sr. Olympics in San Jose where my sister Ginny has been volunteering as a timekeeper and nurse in the first aid station. Ann was on her way to Sarasota to help find a retirment situtation for her parents. Pete told her all about where Aunt Ann and Uncle Walt have been living for many years and Ann planned to make it first on her list.

Middlebury, VT
Today we took a drive to Middlebury to poke around. The campus of Middlebury College spreads throughout the town.
We discovered the Storm Cafe http://www.thestormcafe.com/ down near Otter Creek. We dined alfresco with the rushing water beside us. The food was great. I hade the PEI mussels and Pete butternut squash soup and Atlantic salmon on a baguette.
