Costco Saturday
a plethora of people
preparing for life

My wife and I can be found at Costco almost every weekend of the year. It often feels like you can find everyone else on this part of the planet there as well. I’m sure their stories aren’t a whole lot different than ours — trying to figure out dinner for the week, finding items to pack for lunches that kids will actually eat, searching our minds to determine if we’re out of some particular household staple, and the list goes on. With any luck, we’ll roll out of the parking lot with a full trunk, a full gas tank, a full belly (hot dogs are great!), and full confidence that our grocery getting is done for seven days.
