Safety Dance

So, last week we had a pretty quiet one. We took a break from doing stuff around the house, finished up John Adams, did some reading and that sort of thing.

We left midday on Friday to hightail it to DC for a wedding on Saturday. The 9 1/2 hours on the way down in the rain was a bit much, but driving back this morning/afternoon was a lightning fast 7 hours. DC is so dang hot!

Jed and Tara, congratulations! Fun times indeed. Here's a picture of the Safety Dance in action...


We saw a bunch of good friends and spent some limited time at Marge's with the familia. Everyone seems to be doing well, which is great.

We also listened to way too much political talk radio on the way up and back. What a fascinating race this is!

Electrician coming Thursday. Considering digging up the backyard to prepare it to start a garden in the spring. Going to fashion a compost pile. Still have a bunch of interior painting to do. Gotta make curtains for the bathroom (thanks for the sewing machine, ma!). Grading. Fencing. Exterior painting... ah well... time to rest up.

Cheers, all!
