Off to 8:30 Mass at Church of the Assumption and Father Ed's last day before retiring after 17 years. Obviously he is very well liked and we could see why - gave a great homily and the entire parish showed a great sense of faith and love. He is a favorite of John and Cindy + he married Brian and Emma and baptized Lucas.
Mark needed a few things at Home Depot, so off we went and then to Riki's Diner for breakfast. What a place - great reviews on Trip Advisor and a very popular spot on a Sunday morning. Luckily there was a table for 2 when we got there as others were waiting; and they kept coming and coming. Delicious cinnamon bread French Toast for me and Mark was happy with his biscuits and gravy!
Back to Catrina and wanted a bike ride before we leave this neat little village - rain is in the forecast but wasn't predicted till noon and radar didn't show that it was coming just yet, so around 11ish we took off on the canal path.....didn't get very far and felt the first drops - aarrghhhh……..we went a little further, turned around, locked up the bikes under the pavilion downtown and came back to Catrina.
John and Cindy came in the rain - we visited on Catrina and then walked to The Royal Café for gelato and hot chocolate (Cindy) - very good stuff!

Italian sounded good on this cool, rainy Sunday night, so we were off (3 blocks) to Mr. Dominic's which both Cindy and Emma had recommended and got great reviews on Trip Advisor.
It's in a huge old house (The Green Lantern Inn), but parking lot was full and we were told there was a long wait....bummer....onto plan B which was to walk towards Catrina and have dinner at The Porterhouse which overlooks Catrina. We enjoyed our dinners (sea bass for me and tenderloin tips over angel hair for Mark).
