Friday Night before Graduation

Friday, May 9, we all headed to Greenville to celebrate Caroline’s graduation.  We were also enlisted to help her load up all her belongings and bring them back to Cross Lane Road.  Steve and I headed up with an enclosed, lockable trailer attached to the truck.  When we arrived around 2:00 we found that she had already packed many things.  After working for about an hour, the rain began and we stopped.  Caroline headed over to graduation practice before joining us for dinner at American Grocery in downtown Greenville. 

If you haven’t been to Greenville, it is worth a trip.  Friday’s are always fun on Main Street.  The streets were closed to traffic for an art show on the Friday we arrived.  On the first Friday of the month, there are bands playing along the street.  The river runs near Main Street and provides a park area for visitors. Dinner at American Grocery is definitely a SPLURGE affair–but Caroline will only graduate once from Furman. 

Dinner was delicious–no pictures because I was distracted trying to follow the conversations of all of the girls and repeating things for Steve who was having some serious hearing problems all evening.  Steve and Lainey had the Grilled Red Royal Shrimp, chorizo, fava beans, asparagus, grilled escarole, gnocchi alla romana.  Katy and I had

Favorite of the weekend!
