more summer fun

This past weekend, as you can read about in my previous post, four of us went to see Les Miserables in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl, a venue I had never been to but one I loved! It was SO beautiful, and there is something about enjoying the theater outside, like it used to be performed that is just very cool to me. Here are a few photos from that night:

The Hollywood Bowl is set in this huge cavern between hills and is a massive ampitheater

That's the Griffith Observatory way off on the hill there, a beautiful view from the BowlOnce the sun went downJenn and Becca on the bus on the way to the Bowlyou can bring picnics into the bowl and alcohol, so jenn had put wine in her nalgene...which some of us thought was a little gross, but oh well.....Chuck and I
On Sunday night we had a birthday BBQ for Dave whose birthday is tomorrow. For graduation he had given Jenn a copy of his family's cookbook--all their favorite recipes. Jenn had to laugh because the main ingredients in the recipes are mayonaise, cream cheese, and sour cream (he's from the south...so is Jenn, they have bonded over food favorites!). So for Dave's birthday Jenn gave him his 3 favorite ingredients: so here's Dave and Jenn with his gift of mayonaise, sour cream and cream cheese...the two of them have strange food tastes!Tera made homemade BBQ sauce
