Bryan’s Welcome Home Dinner
Met Bryan, Heather and Lauren at Phil’s BBQ, with Stephanie and KK, as a welcome back dinner for Bryan who today returned from his successful tour in Djibouti.

Old faucet taken out, new separate handles put in
Like an old person; crusty, stained and leaking
The shiny, new John Holmes model
