BBQ

After work, my grandparents came for a belated father's day visit.Nathan worked the BBQ and we ate an amazing dinner outside on the back patio.




After dinner we had a few visitors walk by. A mother and her babies ran across the yard and up a tree.




As a close to the night, my mom, Nathan, and I sat outside and watched the Space Station pass overhead. It is visible four times this weekend.The International Space Station takes about 90 minutes to orbit the earth but it's not usually visible because it is covered by the earth's shadow. It looked like a plane smoothly flying overhead. I wasn't overly enthused to see it, but it's part of history so why not?
