Three Visitors from Baltimore

SUNDAY- This morning, our Nashville boat-friends, Julie and Bob, called. They were driving to Washington from their boat in Baltimore. Could we meet them for the day? Of course! They arrived with Snickers (their Labradoodle, Louie’s good friend) after we visited the Freer Art Museum. Louis was sooo excited to see Snickers; he could hardly believe his initially boring day on the boat had become so much fun. Both dogs promptly watered the aft-deck pee pad! Julie and Bob had never seen Sea Dream and we spent the afternoon relaxing and visiting with our good friends. Bob went to Medical school in Georgetown and recalled an old, landmark hot dog joint near Georgetown called Ben’s Chili Bowl that sounded cool. He & Julie navigated their car through a maze of neighborhoods to Ben’s. It was crammed but the wait was worth it! Even the president stops there. Bee Bop music blared as plates of cheese chili fries and chili dogs were served over the counter.

Another great day in the city and this one shared with friends. Tomorrow we can go back to the museums and dinner with our new Canadian friends, Diana & Ross, aboard their sailing cat, One White Oak.
