May 2022: Washington DC

The bathroom remodel dragged along at the same pace, and we hosted the group dinner before heading south to Peoria AZ by way of Henderson NV for a quick visit with the Youngs. Maren dropped us at PHX for our flight to Dulles by way of Chicago. We settled in at the Chantilly Comfort Inn for a couple of days of celebration of Lucy Jane's graduation from The George Washington University. It was delightful being with family and friends. But I'm gonna say that I hate humidity. I have lived in the desert for too long.

The glass divider is in

The toilet and sink are in (the drain will be changed)

Flowers for a belated 5 de Mayo dinner with The Group

Dinner at Cheesecake Factory in Henderson

Off from Chicago to Dulles in Washington

I am a freak and need the air to move when I sleep, so I
now carry my own fan in my suitcase.

The sun came out and it was hotter than Hell so we headed for
the shade to wait for the graduate to join us

Rob's sister, Courtney, hosted an afternoon of pizza and visiting. 
Anna's lifelong friend Jennette came from Wilmington, Delaware

The next morning it was back to AZ for more festivities.

Not sure it matters, but, Culinary Dropout was the night before Finn’s graduation. —Maren
