Love You Aunt Helen …

Today we went to visit my 94 year young Aunt Helen in McLean, VA.  It’s an annual event for us and always rewarding.  We met at my cousin Stan’s home which was a double reward. He has the softest, greenest, thickest grass I know. My shoes were off before getting out of the car so I could feel it barefoot!

We stopped at Tysons Corner to the food trucks to pick her up a Maine lobstah roll at the Red Hook Lobstah truck.  Bill and I chose filly sandwiches which were delicious.  She loved the roll!

We were greeted by Stan’s pup “Hope”. Such a sweet girl!

Hope’s friend “Thor” was also there (Sean’s girlfriends pup).

Had a great visit. Stan showed us some old slides of Aunt Helen and Uncle Bob which was a nice surprise.  Uncle Bob played “Josephine” which Stan still has.

He also showed us some pics of his camping trip last weekend which looked like a lot of fun. We vowed to go camping together next visit!

The highway (267) has a railway that runs between 8 lanes of traffic in the center. It is used to commute workers into Washington. Tried to get some pics of it.

 

Back at the RV, we took a walk and found this flower. No idea what it is but unique.  20160531_184025

 

Thanks for being you Aunt Helen. Stay happy, stay healthy, stay young. Love you.

  1. That’s sweet having the train run between the highway, I’m going to try & get an Arial view of that & maybe try & make a similar model railroad idea based on it. Not that the model railroad is even functioning right now. Spring & summer snuck up on me & never have much time at all. But fall & winter will be back in a blink of an eye, so it will get there. Love the poker plant too.
