weekend with the in-laws

[vernacular_life]

Judd's parents drove up here for the long weekend from Tampa........the weather was beautiful (the first time they've visited with nice weather), so we did a bunch of sightseeing.

Saturday:  Baltimore day.  Ft Mchenry, the Inner Harbor, Federal Hill, lunch at the Baltimore Museum of Art, walked through Fells Point, rested at home, visit at Steve

Those steaks sound good. I tried a fig for the first time just a few months ago. I have never thought of cooking with them. That sounds like an interesting combination!

I love the kite picture especially :)

the steaks were SO good....I just bought a jar of fig preserves, scooped a bit out, micro'ed it a bit to warm it up and stired in the vinegar.

As for the kite, Judd's been really into Kite surfing the past couple of years and finally got a 'training kite'. The day we were out, it was so windy that it kept lifting him off of the ground!

Wow! I didn't realize that was even possible! But it's not just an average kite I take it? Sounds like a lot of fun. They have kites all over the state parks around here. Always fun to watch. :)

I might have to try that steak recipe :)

Not very often - they were up here for a day last Nov on their return trip from Connecticut, but before that, it was Jan 2004 since they'd been here!

I love the Crabby Katherine pic. :)

That steak sounds tasty. I think we'll have to give that a try.

I wish I had a pedometer on for the DC day! We'd easily walked 4 miles
