Misc. recent events

This post is a hodge-podge of random, somewhat recent photos...
In Orlando Florida, out for an evening walk to Universal Studios~

Palms at night ~
After we arrived home from Florida Peter's sis came to visit for a few days! We spent a beautiful Saturday afternoon downtown DC touring around. We walked from Iwo Jima to Arlington Cemetery to the Washington Monument to the White House and back to Iwo Jima. Needless to say we were happy to get home & put our feet up!

I am so surprised this tree wasn't cut down before this happened~
Dinner at our favorite restaurant :) Brother n' sis ~
Sunday afternoon we ventured to Mt. Vernon. They had a fall festival going on which was quite interesting. This particular booth was showing/explaining the benefits and uses of the cocoa bean during those days. I can't say that I necessarily needed to be convinced of the goodness of chocolate, but it was interesting none-the-less!

On a completely unrelated note - Dozer likes to lick the Mango seed. :)
After P.'s sis left, Liesl's cousin ("C") came to town! She wanted to venture over to Mt. Vernon also, however this trip was in the evening for their fall wine festival. We met K, L & C there Friday night & had a relaxing evening on the lawn at Mt. Vernon. C is a bundle of energy & much fun to be with - we had a great time!
George and Martha Washington were even there!

Our little picnic blanket :)
It was a great evening with fun company!
