Jan is spending his summer vacation from teaching working on fishing boats, and fortunately for us he's a lobsterman at least part of the time.

Mel, Dillon and Sue relaxing before dinner. 
 
Kerry, Sue and Mel had salad, bread and as they say in Connecticut "Chowdahh" under control in the kitchen.  
The Keg-o-Q was a big success. A big pile of hardwood coals buried in seaweed is the only way to steam seafood. Jan cut a keg in half the night before, and this was its inaugural as a lobster steamer. Yes he still has a left hand, it just happens to be cut off in the photo. 
Jan is hoping to start leading school tours to Africa next summer. Hopefully he'll be back in time to play lobsterman in August. 
Rick and Kerry (far left and right) rounded out the dinner party. All six of us are planning to get together again in a few weeks in Martha's Vineyard for an end of summer celebration. 
 
Once the food was on the table it got really quiet for a while. 
Jan even surprised himself with how perfectly the lobster turned out. 
 
We all had a fantastic time. Thanks again Jan and Mel! 
The morning after!
