I took Aunt Mary Lou with me to grocery shop at Aldi's. She had mentioned the other day that she has not been to a store in a long time. It took one hour to get through the store.

We were invited by the Cougars to Fantasy Day at the stadium. Joe participated in batting practice and catching in the outfield. This is Joe getting his standing ovation! : )

Our first tourist stop of the day was the White House. While we were in the visitors center we ran into a family that I know from Geneva (it was very weird).
Waiting for "the Metro"
After our day sightseeing we swam and chilled by the pool. Here we are playing a card game while we wait for our dinner.

I broke my rule about not taking work home with me. My 'to do' pile at work is getting so big and so disorganized that some things don't get done on time. So I am spending a short amount of time to get it sorted out.

After a 13 hour drive we arrived in Washington D.C. at about 7:30.We checked into our hotel and then took a walk to see the Capitol at night. There was a military band playing at the bottom of the stairs. We watched them for a little bit and then walked back to our hotel. Tomorrow we are off to the White House and Ford's theater.

Annie took this picture of the pears on our pear tree, today. Then, she went out to the yard & made herself a fruit salad with some raspberries & grapes.

Gianni and I went to Joe's union hall today to drop off a check for Joe's continuing education classes. It was so sweet to take Gianni there since that is where we had our wedding reception.

See the 2nd white building in the far off distance? That is where we have to park when the parking lot where Maureen and I work gets full, which is everyday by the time I get to work! I took this picture from near our building.
