Quick Weekend and Vacation Planning.

Friday after another busy day at work Needles and I had plans to head South to visit Cynical and Ragged. We arrived around 5:30pm and was greeted warmly by our hosts and soon to be co-vacationers. The first thing on the agenda was to get our belly's full and we weren't disappointed. Cynical's homemade lasagna and salad. For dessert was yellow cake with chocolate icing ala mode. Yummy. After our hunger pains were gone we settled in and visited to catch up on current events and also to make reservations for one of the legs of our upcoming vacation. The second day of our visit we enjoyed fresh baked blueberry muffins and fresh fruit to appease our belly's until lunch were we enjoyed the Shogun. As always they did not disappoint. On the way home a few stops allowed us to walk around and settle our fully stomachs. That evening we had some weather move in and tornado sirens blared a few times. With heavy rains and hail the size of marbles we were glad the worst of it moved on by.We started to play a few games of Yahtzee and then a craving for a Blizzard from the DQ overtook us and out the door we went in search for ice cream. When we returned home it was time for Earth Hour so we played the final game of Yahtzee by lantern light. This morning we were treated to a fritata ala Cynical with fresh fruit and fresh coffee. Before long it was time to head back home and the weekend is again too short. Thanks Cynical and Ragged for a enjoyable weekend and I wish the weather would have been more conducive for porch setting.

VACATION PLANS:
The first leg of the vacation for us will be arriving at Cynical and Raggeds home for the first night and then we will be up with the chickens to head out to Ashville, North Carolina where we will be staying at Cumberland Falls Bed & Breakfast in the Daydream Room. After visiting with Ragged's family and attending LEAF we will be moving on down the road to our next destination. Our second destination is Washington D.C. and we will try to see as many museums and monuments that we can fit into our limited visit. We will be staying at The Intown Uptown Inn in the Corleone room. After 4 nights there we will be on the third leg of our trip and heading the direction of home. We plan to find something along the way with no set plans and if we want to drive more or less then it will be optional. The final day will be returning to Cynical and Raggeds and the return drive home. I am excited that Cynical and Ragged has invited us along for vacation and birthday party with her family. We now have our reservations and before we know it will be time to go. Its just a few weeks away. I can't wait.

PS. Hope the hand is better Cynical.
