Phone | Technical Day

My mom and I attended the 90th birthday celebration for our bowling teammate.  Her family did a fantastic job with the event, and while she knew there was a party, she was surprised by the extent of it.  She moved to Virginia from New York and had bowled there too.  Her teammates from there were also in attendance.

Focus

I went to lunch with my best friend to celebrate her birthday.   The focus of my dessert was creme brulee.


 Before lunch we took a picture.  Loved the pediment above the door!

Soup

Today I visited the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley with my best friend.  I was able to finally catch the exhibit "Curious By Nature" featuring the art of Charley and Edie Harper on its last weekend there.  Among other things, I found this piece titled Potluck. Maybe the coatimundi is eating soup out of this container.  We'll never know.

Some other images I enjoyed.




 
 

 


And the obligatory picture of us together with some of Charley Harper's National Parks poster art.

Birthday Lunch

I also met my best friend for lunch today.  We used to meet at a restaurant called Griffin Tavern.  However someone else is running it now, and it's called Dark Horse Irish Gastro Pub.  The food was still pretty good.  It's a slightly different atmosphere now though.

Piping Hot

I celebrated my birthday with my family and best friend at a place called 50/50 Taphouse in Winchester.  My friend made me a delicious flourless chocolate cake.  The candles were piping hot after they were lit.

An Item of Clothing

Feeling a bit nostalgic today.  In high school I couldn't wait to get my letter jacket.  I wore it all the time.  I was in marching band and received a letter for that as well as an academic letter.

Prompt Free

My friend gave me this coaster on Friday.  We were supposed to see each other back in early January so it was really a Christmas present.

Slide

The first thing I thought of when I saw this prompt was an afternoon after church a few years ago (2017) when my friend and I tested out the new playground equipment.  We had to make sure it was safe for the young children, you know.

Laugh

Picture Life | Gratitude 
More birthday fun ensued today.  My best friend and I had lunch and then went to the Green Valley Book Fair in Harrisonburg.  When we get together, there is always much laughter.  Because it was raining earlier in the day, we almost forgot to take our picture, but we squeezed it in right before leaving.
 

 A few pictures from lunch at Olive Garden too.


 

And some pictures after we left the book fair.

I spent the afternoon having lunch with some dear friends today.  We ate at Metro Diner in Fredericksburg and talked for hours.  Such a fun day that we have vowed to do more often.  Photo courtesy of our waitress on my friend's phone.

Besties Lunch

Today I had lunch with my best friend, something we do several times a year.  This time we went to a new restaurant, Ours Noir, in Washington, Virginia.  We had a great time and a wonderful lunch.  We also visited a couple of art galleries.  


The Monte Cristo was terrific!

We had the flourless chocolate cake and the pecan pie.

Friendship

Picture Style | A Different Perspective 
My best friend and I had lunch recently.  When I say lunch, I mean that we sit in a restaurant for a couple of hours and sometimes after that we visit art galleries.  On this day we did both.  Dessert is almost always involved.  I had flourless chocolate cake, and my friend had pecan pie.
