Weekend Update(s)

This update is actually the past two weekends!  We had a lot of adventures, from dog sitting to hosting couchsurfers to fitness activities.  Click on the above picture to see a larger version.

This past two weekends we:

1.  Watered the garden of a neighbor who is on vacation for the week.  This is her backyard.  For the moment, I am pretending it is my backyard and that we have a huge lakehouse!

2-5.  Did a 30 mile bike ride today and with a stop for an angus burger with bacon at the Paoli Bread and Brat House.  It was awesome!

6. Hosted a German girl and her Chicagoan friend on Friday night.  Saturday morning I took them to the farmer’s market and to tour our beautiful state capitol. They found us through Couchsurfing.

7.  Finished the silverware for our wedding, as seen in this post.

8-10. Made time to enjoy our morning coffee by the lake, complete with baby ducks.

11. Met up with Benji for a drink at Nostrano and admired his self-portrait someone made for him.

12-14.  Had my first experience with dog-sitting.  Mo and Bella are two high-energy dogs who were happy to take me for a run twice a day!

15. Our orchids are growing like crazy!  The little $9 orchid that I got in August from Trader Joe’s now has three separate stems and so many flowers we had to get extra stakes to help support them!
