Rachel came into town and it was SOOO nice seeing familiar faces. We had dinner at her house on Sunday 8/16 and man Devin couldn’t get enough of the whole thing, the dogs, the fat cat, the food, the family, a real house. I didn’t think he would ever want to leave. It was pretty cute though; he made best friends with one of the dogs. I enjoyed being able to talk to friends. Mark mentioned hunting at one point and I seriously cannot stop thinking about hunting. I have picked out my new hunting rifle and now I just need to get to Alaska. On Monday we went to the national zoo in DC, I parked at Rachel’s house and we rode metro in. Mark got sick on the way there and had a some projectile puke on metro, it was a little bit of a surprise but he is such a good sicky, he wanted food after and we all felt horrible for him but he seemed fine. If it was me I would be whiny and probably want to go home. The zoo was pretty cool, I loved that it was free and that they had Pandas. I love Pandas.
On Wednesday it was my last chance to see Rach so I was going to wake up early and head to the beach to meet up with her and her fam. Well I woke up early and Devin said that his class should get done around 10- 10:30 and then we could leave for the beach. Needless to say we didn’t get out of here until after noon. I was VERY annoyed because she had to leave the beach at 3 and it was supposed to take a couple hours to get there. We ended up seeing them for a full 20 minutes oooh yeah!!! I was pretty bummed but it was ok cause I still had Utah. We hung out at the beach and went to the different little shops. We got TCBY (my favorite) and did mini golf where I whopped Devin’s hiney! We tried Five Guys for the first time and it was pretty tasty. We bought salt water taffy and at the same shop we found zebra stripes gum. That used to be my favorite when I was little so I had to buy some. I popped a piece in my mouth and within 2 minutes the flavor was all gone. It was a good little treat to give to the kids in Utah. On the way back we stopped at a street market and bought some butternut squash, it turned out really good in the toaster oven.
