With the kids otherwise occupied, Jeanine and I did some shopping at REI (probably my favorite place to spend money, other than a good camera store) followed by a late dinner at the John Harvard’s Brewery and Ale House. Probably best known for their beverages, none of which I imbibe, we found the food to be quite good as well. Jeanine and I shared our meals and an hour of uninterrupted pleasure in each other’s company absent the distractions of our normal life.
