More June Adventures

We have continued to explore and learn more about our new "temporary" home. This area has so much to offer, it is difficult to narrow it down. We have joked that we might have to stay longer just so that we can see and do all that we can. We hope to make it to some of these places in the coming months: Jamestown, the outer banks of North Carolina, New York City, Baltimore, Pennsylvania (Philadelphia and Amish country), along with many of the historical sites in this area. We will see if we can fit it all in.

Over the last few weeks, we have hiked in the Shenandoah Valley, toured Louray Caverns, took another trip to DC with friends and hiked around the Prince William Forest. We also discovered some great parks in the area - Burke Lake Park and Frying Pan Farm. We had our first visitors from out of town too. Tim and Louanne Pepper came from Houston to stay for a few days and see the sights in DC. We know Tim from our days at Baylor, he led our college group at Fellowship Bible Church in TX. He and Louanne were married in November, so this was our first chance to meet her. It was so fun to have friends here and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with the Peppers. Nana and Papa Lauer will be our next visitors and we plan to have LOTS of fun with them over the Fourth of July. I am sure that we will more adventures to tell in our next blog.

Hope this finds you well. Drop a line anytime at: dalauas@yahoo.com
