Jungle Law

(Community Matters) I missed the VF issue on the Ecuadoran lawsuit against Chevron. As we went around the table, I asked Hailey Rudy to tell us about her new job in Ecuador. She’s working for the team of plantiffs’ attorneys in Quito and this week met Pablo Fajardo. Pablo and the lawsuit are an extraordinary story. If you don’t know, you’d like to.

Snow’s BBQ, Kreuz’s sides (plus their ribs – still the best) and a salad from Bastrop’s Farmer’s Market. Michael earlier mentioned that reading about yesterday’s food trip reminded him of me on Salt Spring Island – so true. I would spend half the day driving between farms, purchasing whatever was ready to pick or recently caught or slaughtered, then the rest of the day cooking. I’ll admit, it’s easier without the cooking part and naps are always a good thing πŸ™‚

Dinner guests included Kristi & Scott Eckert, Carla & Jack McDonald, Hailey (kirk’s oldest daughter) & Kirk Rudy, Crystal & Mark Strama and Jodi & Fred Zipp. We promised each other last night was off-the-record, so I won’t recant the other conversations. It was midnight before anyone stirred from the table, so a good night in our book.
