Benihana, Dulles, VA

----- Kate hankered for steak and flashing cutlery, so the choice seemed clear..

Birthday Kate!

27!

Yum!

Someone dropped off homemade pralines! Yay! :)

Also, I saw not only the guy you mentioned, but Skip and Carol were also there.

NFHell

Even the added power of Jon's 'Super Bowl Gruden' bobblehead gift doesn't seem to be working.

Tyson's Galleria Mall

I wait in vain for the Disco Santa...

Rite Aid, Arlington

I was in the store for 30 minutes and this guy was crashed in this chair the whole time. Love the sign over his head. So true!

Kate!

Thrift store, Merrifield, VA

Look familiar?

Boo hoo

That didn't work either, Pops. :(

McLean, 7:00am

Just a light dusting of snow. XO

Messy!

----- See you soon!

Skyharbor Airport, Phoenix, AZ

Hi, Mom!

Hockey Arena, Phoenix, AZ

I wonder how many of the jingoists who carry on about Dubai building a ski slope in the middle of the desert are season ticket holders for the Arizona Coyotes? Hmmmm...

Renaissance Hotel, Phoenix, AZ

Our hotel is located immediately adjacent to the stadium where the Arizona Cardinals play. Thank god there's no game or the parking lot would be full of drunks painted like birds. XO

Over the Potomac, dawn...

Sweet.

Nat'l Airport, 5:30am

There are varying opinions as to what this bit of mosaic 'art' on the floor in the ticketing area represents. I maintain it is a mantis jumping rope. Others disagree. Bah. Fools!

Love, Mike

New shoes!

Ain't it the truth? Love ya, xoxoxo

Kat drops by!

She's goofy! I don't know where she gets it... XO

Pimmit Hills PO

This is the month that is a drag to have a PO box.

Sinking slowly into the couch...

The first non-busy Sunday after the busy season always becomes an orgy of football watchery.

Somewhere in Arlington

Me getting my kicks on Rt. 66. As usual...

Washington, DC

A pianist's-eye view of the Reagan show. Note the fine performance being given by my hand.

A better pic of Jo and her young man

Matt Hazard. Danger isn't his middle name. It's his last name, actually. Handsome fella. And he seems to dote.

Jo scraped her chin up tackling one of her friends at a party the night before and was quite sheepish about her new beauty mark. :) 

 

My soup is beginning to smell really good...

McLean, VA

The penultimate resting place of the late Tom T. Yum...

Where's Jame?
