July 5-11th

Richard got to enjoy a holiday on Monday and we stayed home and enjoyed a nice day together, swimming and having fun. On Thursday he commuted from DC to Annapolis for a Single Payer meeting on West St, but hopped on an earlier express bus with the same number but that didn't stop on West St! We had to cross the Chesapeake Bay Bridge to go pick him up on Kent Island and bring him to the meeting late. He felt so bad, but he said it was a good meeting and he still was able to take minutes. Over the next week he was very excited to meet with health policy legislative assistants for Congressmen Conyers and Kucinich, and Senator Wyden to talk about single payer possibilities on the state level.

On Friday, I drove into DC and met him and his fellow interns for dinner at an excellent Ethiopian restaurant called Ethiopic near Union Station. Sunday morning we went to brunch with Richard's friend's aunt and uncle at Carrol's Creek. Sunday was also the final for the World Cup, but instead of watching we drove into DC to meet up with our friends the Quigleys and meet their son. We had a lovely time swimming at their neighborhood pool and T really had a great time spraying everyone with her water gun!
