The Boys Are Back in Town 2019

Todd Swank's Diary Entry for March 17, 2019

My high school buddies, Joel Anderson, Ron "Sugarman" Myers and "Krazy" Kory Madson, all came up to spend the weekend with me.  We were supposed to go skiing, but that fell through for various reasons.  So we were just going to have fun instead!

Luke And Avery were also in town for the weekend.  Avery's Spring Break started on Friday and Luke came home to spend some time with him.  Their friends, Josh and Jenni, came over to go out with the boys and I believe a fun time was had by all.  At least I'm hoping that's what happened.

Not one to be left-out, Blue said if everyone else was having friends over, he insisted on having a friend over his well.  Eventually he invited the neighbor dog over to play.  They sure had a good time together.

Even the albino squirrels weren't leaving each other's sides this weekend.  Everyone appreciates having good friends!

I've been playing cards with this group for more than 30 years.  It's nice for my boys to get a chance to get to play with us for awhile.  Until I realize that ultimately I'm bankrolling half the table.  Probably not a good idea on my part.

We thought it would be fun to take the light rail  to Downtown Minneapolis.  It was pretty fun, but we did almost have a big fight break-out in the car behind us which was a little surreal.  We were on the crazy train!

Being it was the Saturday before St. Patrick's Day, there were all sorts of people downtown being festive and having fun!  We like hanging around people like that.

We capped off the night at Benihana having one of our favorite meals.  We had a bizarre coincidence occur when the other couple at the table with us who were randomly seated ended up being the old boss of Krazy Kory.  Weird how things like that work out sometimes.

This guy likes to blow his own horn about his cooking.  I must admit, it was pretty dang good!
