When KJ and I lived together, Saturday morning tradition was waffles or french toast, fresh fruit, and coffee or tea. 9 times out 10 KJ would wake me up by loudly starting to pull pans out of cupboards or by the smell of coffee. We resurrected the tradition… I think we will always be breakfast buddies. 
We went wedding dress shopping, but just in case she chooses one of the dresses tried on for her July wedding, I figured I should keep the photos of KJ being beautiful in white safe on my computer. Instead, us after lunch.
For some reason I was not shutter happy this trip and so things that were done but not captured on film, or really, sd memory card…going downtown to Broadway for live music and drinks, friends I stayed with and their lively and imaginative four year old daughter, Lebanese and Ethiopian food.
Enjoying a beautiful afternoon on the front porch with BQ (formerly BT). BQ got off work a little early, so we indulged in some food with addictive properties and a couple games of cribbage. Once again the husband, JQ, was missing thanks to work…

The road trip has been great thus far, which has left little time for blogging or writing about it. Instead of holding out on photos for a time when I might or might not get around to tossing in details, here are a few images from the road of the people I have seen.
Antiquing with JD. (Husband CD opted out of this excursion to do the responsible thing and write a lecture.) 
Chilling with SM & CM. For those of you who know SM, she is doing great and sends her greetings.The last time I took a real road trip I had recently finished up my undergrad and did a last spring break trip with friends to South Carolina. Fiver years and two degrees later I find myself floating again and am ready to head south in the spring. This time there is no guarantee of getting to use my tent and sleeping bag, my travel companion will be books on tape and local radio stations, and there will be no driving through the night. However, there is a guarantee of chai, coffee, adult beverages of choice, smiles, and laughter shared with friends with whom I have history. I will also discover a new city, drive new roads, take in some spring colors, and work in eclectic local coffee shops. So….for the next three weeks, updates from the road.
