I'd hoped to post about this once I got pictures online, but as that hasn't happened yet, here we go... The weekend of July 24th, Greg and I headed down I-81 Friday night for Abingdon, Virginia to visit with his grandparents. We got in just before midnight and immediately headed for bed. The next morning we got up and had breakfast with Grandma and Grandpa Presley, and then head to a local air and car show. It was a lot of fun and Greg got some great picture of some of the planes. I hope to have those up before too much longer. We walked around for about an hour and a half or so before we all decided that it was getting far too hot and we headed back to their house for a lazy afternoon. That evening we went to the Barter to see the show, Blue Sky Boys which was a show about the designers/engineers, and the fictionalized thought process behind how the US was able to launch the first manned flight to the moon. It was a really fun show, and we enjoyed being able to see it with Grandpa while Grandma ushered. Sunday morning brought church and lunch with Grandma, Grandpa, and two gentleman from their church, Tim and Rob. We talked about their college plans, goals, and enjoyed a good breakfast food lunch before grandpa stocked us up on fresh tomatoes and we hit the road back to Arlington. We had a great time visiting and seeing the airshow. And, as usual, the Barter did not disappoint. This past week we met friends for dinner, ran errands, and caught up on sleep in general, while making sure that kitty got lots of extra love and attention to make up for our leaving her alone for the weekend. Then this past weekend, I went to a wedding shower, Greg had his game, and we helped a friend move on Sunday afternoon. So there you have it...the run down in the interim. |
