On Tuesday, Technology Center 3600, where I work, had a joint picnic with Technology Center 1600 at Fort Hunt Park, so I got to chat with a few old acquaintances, and with some people I hadn’t met before, for example, an examiner in TC 1600 whose husband is a (civilian) instructor at the Naval Academy in Annapolis. A few people had brought their dogs, so I got to pet a pointer named Argos (only two eyes), who leaned into me, and otherwise seemed delighted to have a new human to pet him. His master said of him, “He’s a leaner.”

There was food I could eat, and after eating, I drank a can of cold beer, one of several kinds of beer available. It was Allagash White, beer flavored with Curaçao orange peel and coriander. I’m not a heavy beer drinker (I believe that this was my first beer this year), but I did enjoy it.
