Spring Break was wonderful!
Scene: Steph, Holland, Kristy, me, and Holland's car.
Day 1: A 5 1/2 hour trip became almost 9 hours due to a stop at IKEA and a stop in Mt. Airy (at the Mayberry jail).
Day 2: Church in Bath County, pancakes and REAL (way too much) Maple
Syrup at Bolar, visited with/saw many dear and familiar people, went to
WV, turned around and visited a Maple Farm, stopped in Monterey and
looked at crafts, visited the Homestead, and went home to relax.
Day 3: (Steph stayed home)Went to Liberty University, hear Mr. Verwer
speak, saw Nick and met his girlfriend : ), hung out with Danielle, went
to Barnes and Noble, met with one of Kristy's friends, ate dinner with
Mr. Verwer, stopped to say hi to Catherine at work, Sams stop, and then
home!
Day 4: Holland went home to Charleston, Kristy, Steph, and I decided to
hike to Griffith Knob, after some driving and not being able to find
where to begin, we hiked to the top! It felt like an 70 degree
incline! It stormed when we got to the top. Then we went to the river
and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows!
Day 5: RESTED!
Day 6: Rested, I had lunch with Mrs. Shaver, we went downtown, back
home, went to Michael's baseball game (where we beat Covington!),
and...I think we made brownies.
Day 7: Filed my taxes, took Josh coffee, went home, ate lunch, went
downtown, ate curry for dinner, hung out with Josh and Michael, went to
DQ and got Ice Cream Cones, and watched Hitch.
Day 8: Slept in, went to Hot Springs (aka, Laura's Boutique) via
Douthat, came home, made scones, watched Princess Diaries 2, and packed.
Day 9: Woke up, ate breakfast, finished packing, went to church, put
too much oil in the car (me), Mr. Fenton drained the oil, left for
school, and made excellent time (back by 5:30ish), relaxed with some
shows and a movie, a little hall excitement, and BED.
The weather was practically perfect, Spring was beginning, the air was so fresh, and it even thunder stormed!
And now, I am at work, back to the norm!
