We didn't have a 3-day weekend like we prefer to have, so the trip felt a little shorter, but we were still really glad we went.
Ian had to spend a lot of the day on Saturday grading, but I had a lovely time, reading, walking around Main Street, getting a pedicure. It was so fun.
On Saturday night, we tried to take a photo together. You can see the sequence of photos here and though they are all less than flattering of me, Ian says I can't delete them from our camera. He says they are our memories. =)
Easy for him to say - he looks the same (i.e. handsome) in all the photos. I look chubby, in varying degrees of being stoned. Ah, well, what can you do.
So here was our first attempt:
Verdict? Terrible. Second attempt:
Slightly better, but I still look a little stone.
Third attempt:
Good enough. By this point, we were laughing too hard to keep trying and it was pretty clear it just wasn't going to be good of me. So there you have it.
On Saturday night, before the picture debacle, we also had a picnic dinner on the stone area right by the pier. It was so nice!
Here is Ian, enjoying the picnic. It's a box pizza, grapes and some cauliflower. We were trying to be frugal, in our on-going attempt to save money and learn to live on less, with the arrival of our cricket less than 9 weeks away.
Verdict? Frozen pizza was great; grapes were good; cauliflower was disgusting. Raw cauliflower is just not that good, especially without Ranch dressing. So frugal or not, noble for eating our vegetables or not, I have to admit that half of the cauliflower got tossed.
We may try to squeeze in one more visit to Huntington but we'll see. We can of course go there with our cricket comes, before they sell, it would just be a different visit.
That's all for now. Have a lovely week everyone!
