Things I Like

I've decided to, in an effort to get back to regular blogging, start blogging about things I like. Seems simple, right? Today I start with the joy of charcoal grilling in the backyard with kids, a beverage and a good dog as a way to start a holiday weekend.
One of the reasons I love to grill with charcoal at the start of a holiday weekend is that it is a great discipline to get the body and mind to relax: sure, you could multi-task but why would you skip out on the joy of entering the weekend at a slower pace, enjoying the smell of the hot coals and the time with family. There are few finer moments in my life than these!
