From Kuala Lumpur to Silver Spring




Not too many days elapsed between flying from Malaysia to Oregon and then getting on airplanes again to fly into National Airport to visit Mark and Marta, Daniel, Eli and Micah in Silver Spring, MD.

The two weeks back east passed quickly, but did include lots of "fun things," including the week-end with the whole family in Ohio (blog posting below). The picture above was taken along the Potomac River on an enjoyable hike along the the old Chesapeake & Ohio Canal. On the very next night after arriving in Maryland, Nancy and I took Daniel and Eli on the Metro to meet Mark after work for a Thursday night game between the Nationals and the Diamondbacks. (Alas, the home team lost!) Among the list of "fun things" experienced was a trip to the beach for Nancy, Marta and the kids. Ron plans to return to D.C. on frequent flyer miles in Sept.; however, this trip was Nancy's once-a-year opportunity to see Mark and Marta, Daniel, Eli & Micah. As a result, the trip was special!

On July 17th -- the anniversary for both of us -- we ended-up "celebrating" by going out with the whole family to I-Hop! The picture below of Daniel was taken on an outing on the Metro for just Nancy and Daniel to visit a D.C. museum.
