August game day

Today's game day was our largest yet, with 10 people in all. We grilled for the second time: veggie burgers, corn-on-the-cob, and one guest brought an unexpected hit, salmon to be baked on the grill wrapped in aluminum foil. As usual we didn't quite coordinate the cooking correctly -- only 5 cobs were done when the burgers were ready -- but breaking the cobs in half meant everyone got something until the second batch was ready. Games I played: while waiting for people to arrive, Barb and I dusted off La Strada for the first time in years. Then I played Carcassonne, Pandemic, and, late at night, Star Trek Catan.
