Bird Watching

This morning I went to Huntley Meadows in Alexandria to go bird watching. I did photograph several new birds. I will be updating the count soon. I did see this beautiful turtle too. The weather was pretty nice and I wasn’t cold today. I think I got something like 10 new birds.

I walked 2.06 miles today.

Crazy Weather

Today I went to a winery to talk with the winemaker, taste some wines and see the vineyards. The weather was crazy. It was 77 degrees in DC. By the time I got to Loudoun County it was 54 degrees. I wore shorts. I was freezing up there on the mountain. The wind was blowing really hard and there was a light rain hitting our faces. The wine was great and we learned a lot about the vineyards but I was freezing!

I walked 2.12 miles today.

Date Night Dinner

My husband is leaving for New Orleans in the morning. We decided to go out to dinner tonight since he’ll be gone until next week. We went to Martin’s Tavern for dinner. We love that place. It was delicious of course. We also had a nice bottle of wine.

I walked 2.25 miles today.

On another note, Apple had an education event today and introduced a new iPad that is geared toward education. The best part is that it now recognizes the Apple Pencil. It’s the lowest cost iPad. I decided to get one! It should be here next week. I got the cheapest one. No cellular, only 32 gigs, and no bells and whistles. I have not been using an iPad for a few years and really didn’t need this one but I wanted it.
