Dad is off to Brazil. Just as the sun comes out in Seabeck. Mom made poached egg on toast for breakfast, and then we got to painting. It will need a second coat because the original, patchy paint underneath still shows. We will do that tomorrow. It looks good though. It will look better once we can paint up to the edges.
After that I read on the lawn and hydrated. Mom sorted through boxes of old things. Found some books that have been long missing.
Lunch was a sandwich. Mmm. Also had a bowl of ice cream. Did more reading.
No quilting, as the girl cave does get quite stuffy and hot. I'll have to suck it up though, if I want to finish anything.
Dinner was a salad.
Mom and I decided to catch the late showing of Captain America. There was a line and some kids smoking and some annoying dudes in front of us in line, but all was fine. We took the first two seats in the back that we could find and settled in for some superhero action movie. Captain America is a good character. The ensemble cast was amazing, but such a shame we won't see them again, seeing as how the film is set during World War II and now Captain is in modern times due to stuff happening. So all the great background people are gone. Anyway, good casting. Nice effects. Nothing too overblown, generally fun. Does it need to be seen on the big screen? Naah. I really wish there were more period super hero movies though. This and X:Men First Class both stand out for having a pre-2000's setting.
Tomorrow, more portraits!
