IT'S GREEK TO ME


As we arrived home from The Berkshires, a violent summer storm raged through Berlin and caused a large tree to collapse over the entrance to our road from off the turnpike.  Using his incredible off-roading skills, Steve was able to get Kelli and I around the damage; however, we weren't too thrilled with what we found at home:  no electricity.  

This really wouldn't have been a problem, but we were expected at an Extravaganza party in Newington that evening with all of Steve's work buddies for food, fireworks, and fun.  After a hot & humid day in Mass, we were all a sight for sore eyes.  Instead of attending the Newington festivities, Kelli went to Rocky Neck State Park, Deon fell fast asleep in the non-A/C house, and Steve did (?).   Eventually, we all made it back together for some Greek fare at Tapa's in West Hartford at around 10 p.m.  

Unfortunately, the story doesn't end there.  Steve's 'tapas' didn't stay put for long.  He was sick all night long!!!!
