Happy Summer!

We went to Mt Monadnock yesterday. It has become an annual event for us. There are several trails in the mountain. But the two most popular ones are the white dot and white cross trails. In the past, we usually took the white dot trail up and the white cross trail down. This time we reversed our usual route. We took the white cross up and the white dot down. Both trails are almost of equal distance and equal difficulty. However, it looks like the dot trail is more popular than the cross trail. So most rocks of the dot trail have become smooth. This made going down harder. But it was enjoyable. In the evening, we had dinner at a pretty fancy Italian restaurant on Revere Beach Boulevard, about 10 minutes by foot from our home. The food was good and reasonably priced. 

Even though it was the first summer day, it was not hot (a little bit humid, though) in Boston. We went to Lowe's today and got a portable gas grill in the afternoon. We had our first cookout this summer, thanks to Dave's  cooking and grilling skill. We had mahi mahi, zucchini and bell pepper. 

Happy summer, everyone.
