zoo

Obviously, I have no idea how to fix the blog if I hit the wrong button.




Went to National Zoo today.

Veggies

Our dinner from Brad's produce stand. We have had the most delicious and sweet corn this year, today's variety is 'Avalon'. Green beans, white eggplant, and a mix of zucchini, yellow squash, onions and garlic. All given extra yumminess from the grill.

The orioles AAA team , the Ironbirds, have a ball park nearby and last night was the school sponsored night out. It was perfect weather in the low 70's and low humidity which almost never happens during baseball season! It was a good game and the Ironbirds won, getting them out of the basement for this week.

It was a fun night out, the kids actually paid attention to the game. One unexpected fly by was amusing.

After the game, fireworks. We have a video of the fireworks but it is too big for the blog to handle. We will get it posted some other way.

Hail, Hail the storm was here

Saturday started out as a beautiful, cool and sunny day. About 3 p.m. I started hearing rumbles of thunder way in the distance. D returned from a 60 mile bike ride just in the nick of time. The storm rolled in, sky turned black and the rain came down along with some hail. The picture shows the biggest of the lot, ranging in size down to pea size. If you can see it,the small white dots in the tree pic are the hail. Amazingly, no damage done to the house or cars. After the storm temp down to 68!
