TRY AGAIN!!!!!

I typed a LONG update last night and then carefully nuked it all by myself. Yep, I know what the real color of my hair is.

After lunch yesterday, we went to the "Passage." That is the place where the water runs down the stairs and ends in a shallow pool. The kids pitched a fit about going, but once they got there they had a blast. Elyse made three friends. She wanted to go to their house to play (which was in Virginia - don't think so).

Dan-O will appreciate this. Then we ate dinner at Qdoba. It was as good as I remembered from graduation days.

After dinner we walked to the Children's Museum (because it is free one Thursday a month). Outside of the museum the police men were giving away water bottles, freesbies and finger printing. We got the water bottles, but nothing else.

After 1 1/2 hours of playing at the Museum, we left because we had to pick up Tim late (8:30). We noticed that it was going to rain soon, so we hurriedly walked the five blocks to the car (me huffing and puffing because most of the walk was up hill). We got our stuff in the trunk and got in the car just as the skies broke loose. It rained so hard we could hardly see where we were driving. But, when we reached the mountain, it was dry as a dessert bone. After picking up Tim, we went to the motel. It looked kind of dark in the area. Turns out the electricity was off. That meant no internet, no lights and no air conditioning. It took all of five minutes to figure out how to open the windows. The rain came down so hard that the halls were pools of water (we get to our room from the outside, the halls weren't inside). Not only were the halls wet, but so was the carpet two feet inside our room. That is where we make Zachary's pallet. So, we had some rearranging to do so that he would have a dry spot to sleep in.

Now it is Friday morning and we need to get ready for Tim's LAST day of school - yeah! Love you all. Have a super weekend. We will see some of you on Sunday.
