Let There Be Light

Jana had to go to work today - so Dick started working to install Jana's new motion-detector security light by the back door. It only took 5 hours, and 2 trips to Home Depot (we didn't get lost)! Now the light is installed, but a prowler would have to jump up and down and wave furiously at it to make it light up. It's a little bit too high.

We drove to DuPont Circle to do a virtual cache - it was a fascinating labyrinth at the ruins of a church that was burned down by arson. We met a fellow geo-cacher, nando0126, there. He is from New York, and the labyrinth was his 20th cache of the day. (See link above)

Later on, we drove to CQ (again we didn't get lost - brag brag). We picked up Jana and went out to dinner at Mimi's - what a great place. They have live entertainment - piano and vocals by the wait staff - very enjoyable. Dick had paella for the first time. He raved about the paella, and said that the calamari in particular was very tender and tasty.

It was fun driving through D.C. at night - a rare treat.
