Going to take tonight off, as Buddy’s season has ended and he is on vacation so we have been off gallivanting. I need to catch up on some sleep.

One of the good things about hitting the road with a man who is accustomed to getting up at 4:00 is that he tiptoes out in the morning to see the sights while I sleep in, and then comes back to the hotel with coffee and a bagel or pastry.

He also comes back with photos of where he’s been.

It’s a surefire bet I’ll never see the White House just before dawn with my own eyes, but this is a pretty good alternative.

I’ll see you tomorrow.

He's a keeper! lol What he captures with images, you capture with words. It's a great combination. My best wishes to you both.
