The start of something beautiful... two pork roasts and a chicken in the smoker at 5 a.m.
A rhubarb/apple pie and a loaf of bread in the barbeque will follow late this morning.
The Palace will smell like a room in heaven all day long.

A discerning shopper?
After many years of wearing glasses with photogrey lenses ( the lenses automatically darkened in sunlight to produce grey tinged shades - automatic sunglasses ). I loved them!
After cataract surgery last fall I no longer needed to wear glasses, so I bought sunglasses for bright light conditions.
Comfort with the green lenses fell far short of awesome, so I recently formulated the idea that maybe grey was the magic.
Yesterday in Thunder Bay I shopped for some grey lens sunglasses. I liked the style of my green ones so was especially attracted to that kind of frame.
Eureka! Found them.
Thought so, anyway.
Today, I compared. Here's how they look. Different brand name on each. Neither seems to be grey. Neither seems to be green. Matter of fact, they seem to be identical as far as the look-see through the lenses.
So, now, I have a so-so pair of sunglasses, and a spare. And I'm looking from the deck out across Pelican Lake and loving the view.

Missing a couple colors of vegetables, but I'm happy with blackened salmon and mashed potatoes beside the lake.
It's a glorious beginning to summer.
Woo hoo June!
