Respite in Maryland

 On July 5 we loaded up the car and drove to Jon's parents' home in Maryland, to have a brief visit and to celebrate Miles' 4th birthday with his grandparents. We got a bit of a treat on the way:

We felt like we'd just staggered off some kind of ark. It was an encouraging sight.
Miles had the first of his two birthday cakes in Maryland. This one he got to help Grandma bake! While I enjoyed a date with myself in Annapolis, getting a haircut and dawdling at Goodwill. What bliss.
He got a bit excited about applying the sprinkles.


 If you have seen Miles recently, you will remember his newfound passion for Pete the Cat. We remembered it too:

There was a happy trip to the air-conditioned mall with its many attractions for kids, and a couple of nights of much needed rest, before, on July 7, we hit the road again.
