So this is another catch up blog. This coming weekend we don't have much planned except cleaning the apartment, and the following two weekends we have company coming so I imagine it will be another 3 weeks before we sit down to blog again so I'm not even going to pretend that we are going to try this time.
This past weekend we didn't do much except a little clothes shopping that was an emergency trip because the weather turned cool pretty fast up here and we weren't prepared. So I'm going to jump back 3 weekends ago to something more interesting. That weekend the weather made us chicken out from doing anything outside (even though it ended up being gorgeous) so we took off to the National Archives. We took a lot of pictures around the mall area, but Ryan has not finished sorting through them (we got a little click happy on the camera) so we'll post a link update once they are finished.
Two weekends ago we watched our Yellow Jackets play on the laptop--it was not ideal but at least we got to see them. We had other games on the tv on mute and the score ticker kept giving away our score before we would see it happen because of the delay so we had to turn the tv off. Sunday we took off for Gettysburg battlefield. It was a fantastic day and was nice to get out of the city. We were exhausted at the end of it because there is just so much to see, but it was a great excursion and was only 1.5 hrs away. Here are the pics from that weekend: http://picasaweb.google.com/ryanbech/Gettysburg9709#.
Last week we went to the GTDC alumni club's viewing party for the Thursday night game. Unfortunately I don't get out of class until 9pm and only got there for the 2nd half. We are probably going to stay home for tonight's game but will go to another club viewing for a Sat. game when school doesn't interfere. School is going well for me. I am starting to get busy and in the thick of the semester. Ryan has been super busy at work, but that's a good thing. We are both happy and still enjoying it up here--I think the novelty will wear off when winter comes though. Everyone says the weather is the same as ATL, but based on the mild summer we had here, we don't think we agree and so we are bracing for a colder winter than we are used to.
In two weekends Ryan's friends are coming to visit, and as soon as they leave Ryan's parents are coming. We are very excited to have more visitors and can't wait to see all of them!
GO JACKETS!
