Wow - it's been almost a year since i posted here... where did 2009 go??? i'll try to condense it a bit!
In April we traveled to Baltimore (on my birthday), rented a car and drove to the Stiegler's house in Anapolis. Wow! It was an awesome (rented) house! Very historic Brown Stone with 3 stories of deliciousness! We enjoyed meeting some of their friends that evening and i was even serenaded by a young man (Jeff) on his dulcimer with "happy birthday!"
The next day Doug showed us around the Capital building, had lunch and were on our way to see Leah and Julian in Anandale that afternoon. We stopped at a Target on our way over; it had it's own parking garage with an escalator up to the store... on the way down, we put our shopping cart in the middle of the up/down escalators & it traveled down with us on it's own 'step' ... pretty cool!
I made an 'origami' scrap book of wedding pics for L&J's first anniversary. They were quite surprised to get it!We had a lovely few days touring the area and enjoying some of the still remaining Cherry Blossoms around the Capital.
Friday we went to Georgetown for lunch and enjoyed a picnic by the river as the rowing teams went past!
Later, we went to a Good Friday Service at Ebenezer's which was very moving. Then on to the Capital to enjoy the tulips and people watching!
On Saturday we drove up to the Stiegler's (now back at the farm) for an informal lunch. It was lovely as always!
Easter Sunday we attended the Theatre Church at the mall, had a quick lunch at home and were on our way to the airport to fly back to Columbus.
Jim turned 50 in May and we decided to take the "little critter" to Hocking Hills for a camping/hiking weekend. Stayed at a local KOA and had a nice time.
When we got home on Memorial day (jim's b-day) we changed clothes, & cars, and drove west past Versailles to meet Glenna, the foster mom of our new dog. His name was Eddie, but we changed it to Benny! He's a 2 year old Jack Russell terrier with a wire coat! Jim is very pleased!
