barrett comes west

barrett was out here visiting from NY for work this week dottie and i were lucky enough to be able to grab a delicious dinner with him tuesday night (unfortunately chuck had a work dinner). dottie warmed up to him right away even hopped up on his shoulders for the walk home. barrett was a good friend and roommate of mine in college and even though we don't get to see him very often, we love it when we get to catch up!

congratulations are also in order. barrett and his wife anne just welcomed a second son, dashiell, 2 weeks ago!
