Notable Highlights Part 2
We met Mary Kay and Hance down on the Mall in late August, and Zach loved people watching!
In September and October, we've had so many good walks to Lake Anne and the Lake Anne Brewery. We've gotten there as a family of three. I took Mom and Dad, and we met Emily, and we shared the adventure with Aliana, Evera, and Nathan. In those visits, I tried their coffee on nitro and delightful wares from a crepe food truck. We took Greer and Shane to Lake Anne and had the most lovely day for a walk and ate outside at the Thai restaurant.
Lots of excursions to Leesburg and wine country: Vanish - just Frank and me; Bluemont with Mom and Dad and Frank and Zach; Breaux with Kathleen, Frank, and Zach; and the Winery at Lost Creek with Jeff, Frank, and Zach.
Emily and I had a great time celebrating her birthday at Le Diplomate in DC. It felt very indulgent!
Over Columbus Day weekend, we made our way to West Virginia. Though it was cloudy on Friday and rainy on Saturday, we had sunny days on Sunday and Monday. Sunday was really windy and in the 40s! The peak color did not disappoint.
Met Jeff at the Vineyard at Lost Creek, and we all had a picnic lunch. It was a treat to feed Zach outside. There was no mess to clean up. We tried a hike a White's Ford Park. Zach got back in the hiking backpack. The breeze was lovely off the Potomac. The park, not very expansive.

We all went to visit Gamma and Daddy Bob in Woodstock over Labor Day weekend and had a great time! Frank and I got out for a fun hike to Tibbett Knob in the George Washington National Forest. It was a beautiful day and a lovely view.

Got sick after Labor Day. We think Zach was sick and got us sick, but once again, we had it far worse! Gamma and Daddy Bob had to come and get him for an overnight because Frank and I were in such a bad way. It was so weird for him not to be with us when we were home!

Some good movies: Wildlike, The Wave, Blind Date. We enjoyed Stranger Things on Netflix and many other good series.
Notable Highlights - Susan: I've enjoyed a bit of cooking, courtesy of the 100 Days of Real Food cookbook. I've made the granola and zucchini bread. Thanks, Yvette.
