Two of our most favorite people, Jenna and Kelsey, met us for dinner off Rt. 81 on their way south to Atlanta last night. They brought with them tales of the mythic Pioneer Valley, smiles, laughs, and faulty contact lenses.
Least anyone wonder why Jenna got pink eye this winter...
We had a most wonderful visit at the now infamous Baja Bean Co., and tried the Split Banana Company ice cream parlor for gelato afterward. The staff kindly indulged our long conversations about theology, blogging, Western Mass, and 90s music, and seemed to ignore any flagrant violations of sanitary code. We also tried a variety of intense and exciting ice cream flavors (raspberry chipotle, cocoa ancho, Virginia maple, sweet cream) to cool down after our spicy, salty dinner. It was so, so nice to be around friends again, even if it was raining and our feet were wet.
Let's all meet back along the Rt. 91 corridor with some graduate degrees in a few years, okay guys?
