So yesterday Anniemal says "There's 2 things we can do for fun this weekend." I am not keen on last-minute plans. After a week of work, I'm generally looking forward to a weekend of nothing in particular. And she hasn't been good lately at anticipating what I would/would not like to do.

My ride to work was interesting today. On the Virginia end of Chain Bridge 4 women on bikes asked me for directions. They had come out the C&O Canal towpath, and were hoping to ride trails on the VA side of the Potomac back to touristy things. But there is no bikeable trail on the VA side of the river. I think there ( Read more... )

[Sat 11:35] Just finished having breakfast and chatting with keith_m043. People are making lots of comments about the size of this tent as they go by.

Yesterday was so
beautiful -- the wedding of
dear friends, so well met.

The festivities --
organized so well, not a
flaw in the evening.

Good company and
good food; and the caller and
the band were great too.

The ceremony:
short, meaningful; the reason
we celebrated.

So many of us
met as you two did -- dancing!
April, Jerry, THANKS!
