Greetings from Richmond, VA

The bus trip wasn't too bad today. Mikey was happy to catch a glimpse of the Washington Monument. We arrived safely and Missy, John the kids and I began our search mission for food. It is becoming a ritual. I think we are all getting tired of eating out and since we had so many choices tonight (which is rare) it made it very difficult to decide what to eat. We went in Panera's and could not decide so we walked out and then finally decided on Mexican. Then we received the delightful news that there is only one washing machine in the hotel and two buses full of people that need to do laundry including me. Guess I will wait until next stop. I really hope I don't dream about a laundrymat again. Although last night I dreamt I knew how to disco roller skate again. I was sad when I realized it was only a dream. Mikey and I just reviewed his Science Chapter on Adaptions:Structural and Behavioral. It doesn't get any more exciting then this! I had a choice between trying russian raspberry vodka or studying Science. Of course being the good mother that I am we studied Science. Now I know that a kangeroo's pouch is a structural adaptation and a spider making a web is a behavorial adaptation. Which by the way are inherited unlike a dog learning to sit which is a learned behavior. Now I really wish I chose the vodka! Okay, I am losing it! Only 7 days to homecoming. Goodnight!
