Another DC Summer
We are in the throes of another hot and sticky DC summer, but that doesn’t mean that fun is not to be had. Local highlights of this past month have included going to another Nationals game AND to an Orioles/Tigers game in Baltimore (where Simona yelled “Let’s go, Nats!” the entire time), enjoying weekly dinners with Tante KK (with an occasional appearance by the attack-Schildkroete), listening to free music at an outdoor amphitheater (National Symphony Orchestra!) and at the Zoo (Army Jazz Band), and spending plenty of time at pools, splash parks, and playgrounds.
Not-so-local highlights have included a weekend in Iowa to visit family and- for Nancy and Caleb only- a twenty-four hour trip to Chicago to attend a friend’s wedding. Simona stayed behind for one night with Tante KK, which, I’m told, was completely tranquil and uneventful for all parties involved.
Tante KK is only in town for one more week, and we will be quite sad to see her go. Fortunately, we go to Georgia in mid-August and will spend one more weekend with her (and other family) before she heads back up to school in New York.
We hope you’re all enjoying your summers, too!
