We’re in Grand Island, NE, this evening.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m going to refrain some saying anything about Grand Island, other than that the restaurant we ate at this evening screwed me on the number of “drummies” that were supposed to be in my order of hot wings.\u00c2\u00a0 But it was a microbrewery, surprisingly enough, and their beers weren’t half bad.<\/p>\n
Ava’s dinner consisted of lemon wedges (this kid loves<\/em> lemon; I bought a container of that Realemon stuff, and Ava stands in the kitchen with her head tilted back and has me squirt it straight down her throat), baked beans, and the ripe olives off the frozen pizza the place was passing off as “homestyle.”\u00c2\u00a0 *sigh*\u00c2\u00a0 The Osborne porto<\/a> I’m now sipping out of a plastic Holiday Inn room cup is easing the pain somewhat; don’t leave home without it.<\/p>\n Tomorrow we’re home.\u00c2\u00a0 Finally.\u00c2\u00a0 It was a great vacation, and it’s always nice to spend time with Rachel and Kevin.\u00c2\u00a0 I start the new job on Monday, and we’re getting closer all the time to moving into the new house.\u00c2\u00a0 So, things will keep moving along.<\/p>\n Kevin got a speeding ticket just as we were leaving Winter Park, and all Ava could say on the way across NE was how she hopes the police don’t stop Uncle Kevin again.\u00c2\u00a0 She keeps reminding us she’s 2 1\/2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We’re in Grand Island, NE, this evening.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m going to refrain some saying anything about Grand Island, other than that the restaurant we ate at this evening screwed me on the number of “drummies” that were supposed to be in my order of hot wings.\u00c2\u00a0 But it was a microbrewery, surprisingly enough, and their beers […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-830","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ava"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9oLlO-do","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/830","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=830"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/830\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=830"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=830"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=830"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
