Rob has always hated it. "Sun in the eyes. Wind. Bugs." And he just out-stubborns me. You'd think we'd do it 50% of the time, but no. He has always simply refused.

I still resent it. But now I can't even hope I'll ever win an argument someday. He now holds the permanent trump card.

I LOVE eating outside when the weather allows (which in Minnesota isn't a very long season anyway). Knowing this, Fiona takes pity on me, and we try to eat outside when we go out to a restaurant together once a week.
