Back in Georgetown

I arrived back in Georgetown late last night. The owners of the house where we’re staying are coming back soon and they dropped off their two cats recently, so we have some nice company.
Most cats that I know pretend not to like people, at least in the beginning, but not Scruffy. It follows us everywhere we walk, and likes to play. It’s twelve years old but very active. The other cat is pretty much sleeping all the time.
I’m staying here a week; Sasha’s internship is coming to and end and we’ll return together next Saturday.
Guus: editing an article for the site and drinking coffee in a house with two purring cats that like attention.

Yesterday Ilana and I drove together from Washington D.C. to North Carolina, that was fun. It was nice to chat with her and she’s enjoying the book we gave her (“Crusade in Jeans”). I drove to Sanford, NC where we were warmly received by Amy, Mark and the kids. After dinner I went back home; Ilana is staying for two weeks in Sanford.
I’d been away from home for 10 days, and that’s been pretty hard on some of our plants. The good news is that the orchid we received last year is blooming again, with beautiful pink flowers.
Guus is on the road from D.C to North Carolinas with Ilana.

Jonathan, Irena and the kids visited us in Georgetown yesterday and we had a great afternoon in the city.
It was very warm so we stayed mainly in the shadow, and walking along the waterside.
Some pictures.

It’s nice to live in a city for a while. We were out of coffee so I just walked to CVS to pick up some.
Many houses in Georgetown are from the colonial era. This gives the city an European feel, especially in the smaller backstreets.
Guus is cooking meatballs, marinara sauce and pasta. Enough for a whole week.

Our car on P Street with many empty parking spots.I’m working from D.C. this week, from the house where Sasha is staying for her internship. It’s on P Street in Georgetown, and falls under the “Zone 2” parking restrictions. Without a permit you can park on the street only for two hours.
So, every two hours I have move our car. This is funny, because there are so many empty parking spots during the day.
Petra has kindly offered that we can park at their house, a few metro stops away. If the moving becomes bothersome I’ll park there for a few days.
