These signs made me giggle like a 12-year old

I saw these signs while driving around Washington DC. They made me giggle.

We had a very good time. Ann and Brook are great hosts. They took us to lunch at Amanda's favorite Lebanese restaurant up past DuPont Circle in the swanky part of town.

Ann and Brook live downtown, near L' Enfant Plaza, so we walked the few blocks to the Smithsonian and spent the afternoon there. Saturday night I drove us across town to the U Street area for our first taste of Ethiopian cooking. Yum!

I love Ann & Brook's cats.

We had a really great time. The music Friday night was fantastic. Coming back Sunday we made a pit stop in Culpeper. It's a beautiful, quaint town and we will definitely take in a wine or farm tour there in the fall.

This morning I was up bright and early to see my girls off to their respective schools. I made French toast for Amanda and packed her lunch. I drove Courtney to work so she wouldn't have to deal with first-day-of-class traffic at the college.

As for my day, I uploaded a report and began work on another one. And I was given another report to do, due Friday.

I danced all through the house today, just because I could.

Life is good. Really good.

Oh yum! We had Ethiopian food for the first time in D.C. I still dream about that meal. It was wonderful!

And congrats on the first day of working from home all alone.

I remember watching "The Hotel New Hampshire" at a movie theatre near Dupont Circle and eating a BAD hot dog at the Foggy Bottom Metro stop which is near the Smithsonian..."To Fly" was more nauseating than usual that time...course that was in 1984, the last time I visited DC. Glad things are awesome for you!

Fran and I saw signs similar to that one. It never even crossed my mind that it could mean something else.

Was the 'K' St deliberate? As in signage for Syd's evening out?
