Blog Entry 5 of 32 The Caffiend

I love coffee. That pretty much is all anyone really needs to know about me. I am a caffeine fiend - or a caffiend, a word I concocted about two minutes ago. I have a hot cup of Seattle's Best 6th Avenue Bistro sitting in front of me right now. I don't know a lot about coffee, but I can grind it and make it and drink it like it's going out of style. I usually have a cup of coffee in my hand. I suppose my character and personality do surge deeper than the 10-cup level. I dig fine art. I love to paint and draw. I like to sit in my living room and play the guitar (and drink coffee) on Saturday mornings. Hanging out with my wife Elise and daughter Laurel...those times are the best. I love fly-fishing, stepping into a clear stream and setting the day-to-day grind adrift. And I can sit and stare out the window at the mountains for a really long time. Elise says I'm "watching out." I think it's my way of meditating. Or maybe it's caffeine overdose.

What's up for the Fourth?

I hate to brag, but the best Fourth of July barbeque in town will go down in my backyard.
My wife Elise and our daughter Laurel and I used to attend the celebrations at Memorial Park. We lived within walking distance of the park, so it was OK. Now that we have to drive to get there...forget it. The parking and crowds are too much of a hassle.
Don't get me wrong. The symphony music, funnel cake and fireworks are fine. But our tastes in entertainment have changed.
Now we much prefer to stay home and fire up the grill in our shady, green backyard.
What are you doing for the Fourth? Gonna hit Memorial Park? Stay home? Or pack up and leave town?
