Man, 5 days. Yikes!
I woke realizing that I was
- having fun
- missed my husband and dogs
- sleeping well
I went to the Air and Space Museum near Dulles Airport — free to get in, $15 in parking, not bad for a family. Very nicely done and I’ll upload pictures later.
It is basically several large hangers with planes arrayed from top to bottom and from side to side. From balloons to gliders and sail planes, to beginning to current times. I think there was a Mooney displayed — I couldn’t get close enough to see, and the part that was disconcerting was that it was white and red, Mooney’s are notorious for coming in hideous colors — we flew two of identical Moonies that were orange and cream. Sounds good on paper, but odd in real life.
I had a good time.
Accomplished a goal — had seafood for lunch — Joe’s Crab Shack and had some of the best food and service on the trip. Worth the charge (unlike the Shoney’s in Bossier City — don’t go there).
The rest of the day has been about resting, relaxing and gearing up mentally to go to work. Got my nails done, and have just been hanging out at the hotel.
Looking forward to the rest of the week, may do some tweeting.
