Those Summer Nights

This evening our friends Emil and Sophie and their dog/son Malte came over for dinner.  We grilled pork loin and chicken wings, made roasted potatoes and carrots and stuffed portabellos.  I made a strawberry shortcake for dessert since it's Strawberry Festival weekend in Bedford, Ohio and I know my grandparents will be having the same.  It was so hot all day, but it had cooled off by dinnertime and our terrace is in the shade so it was perfectly lovely back there. 
After dinner we took a walk by the lake along with many of our neighbors.  We passed a couple and their two small children launching their boat for an evening trip across the water and another family fishing off the promenade.  It seemed like everyone was outside tonight, even these seagull babies and their mom.  Yes, indeed, this is the life.
