Is it really halfway through May? Last weekend we dashed down to Davenport for an unexpected event. Friday morning our friend Holly sent word that she was giving bonus point to anyone who wore the shirts that Spencer & I had made for them (specific to a previous campaign) to the game session that night. So we decided at 11:30 that morning that we were going to show up that night at her house!
The trip went really well, and it was so much fun. We stayed in a hotel, ate at all our favorite places, swam in the pool, shopped at our favorite thrift store, and visited our favorite places. Then we ran out to Iowa City to see family on Sunday, and drove back on Monday. Nut Brown fell into the duck pond at the park. Rose Pink began swimming in the deep end of the pool by herself. Bobo acquired a Batman shirt at the thrift store that he hasn't really taken off since. (We did get it washed, but he wouldn't take it off last night to get in bed, so ended up wearing it over his pajamas.)
It's fun to visit places you used to live, because you know where all the good stuff is. Although this time around I was surprised at how much smaller Davenport seemed: my mindset has expanded to fit Detroit.
