My Dad came pretty early and worked in the garden for hours. He planted carrots and radishes. I did a lttle, but it got hot and I was supposed to make cookies. Ray and I walked some. I mixed the cookies up, but it was too hot by then to bake them. I did some reading for my Psych of Aging class. He left and I had lunch about noon. I did some more readng and computer work.

I baked the cookies about 5. Ray came home and we turned around and went out again. The opening of the Democratic HQ was at 6, although we were a little late. I brought a few cookies, but there was a ton of food there and I should have just taken them home again. i forgot them when I left though, sadly. There was an excellent turnout and lots of people to say hi too. After a while, it was loud, hot, and crowded, and we left. My Dad was there, as well as Janna and Ron, Becky and Kent. Becky and Kent ate dinner at Heirloom with us. Ray had already eaten a lot at the open house, so he just had a salad. Becky and I had burgers. They were delicious. Heirloom's claim to fame is local food. I ordered the peach upside down cake, but only ate half of it. Becky's sweet potato pie was delicious, too.

We watched John Stewart and went to bed, so woke up before 6.
