Bourbon Tasting at Little Fish

Little Fish hosted a bourbon tasting event this evening! Michele and I met up with Peggy and Doug to check it out.

It was a blind tasting, so we had to take notes of what we tasted and smelled, and then try to guess which bourbons they were. Everything was delicious! 

We also got little personal charcuterie plates. Mmm.

Olive Garden Lunch With Beth

Beth was in Marietta visiting her Dad for a couple of days, so we met in Parkersburg for lunch at the Olive Garden! We used to eat there in college sometimes so it was a fun throwback. Obviously we got bottomless soup, salad and breadsticks! It was sooooo good to see Beth!

Bonus: We got free dessert!

Solar Eclipse

Today there was a solar eclipse! Athens was in the path of 97% totality. We watched it from Mom and Dad's deck!

It was amazing. The air got cooler and it looked really dusky and hazy outside.

Look at that weird lighting! It was a very cool experience.
