Washington DC for dinner

Taking advantage of the rental car, we drove over to Patty and Rich's after church (visiting the Gallery church in Harbor East) and had a nice catch-up and came away with a table and chairs on loan! In the afternoon, I watched the second half of the Ravens game (a win) in the lounge at the apartment building. After a 2-1 loss to Fulham, my enthusiasm for following the football at home this year needs some bolstering.
We then drove down to DC to Justin and Irina's new apartment (which is gorgeous) for dinner. Tessa Mattholie was also passing through for a wedding, so we had a lovely eveningn together. Justin cooked a Hawaiian feast of slow-cooked pork that was delicioso. Alix, who was born just before we left last time, is now pretty big, but was being very shy for most of the evening, until bedtime arrived. It was a tired drive home to be back for work today.
