In no particular order although heavily weighted towards pork…
1. Getting of tour of Baltimore’s Flag Museum from our cousin Jill
2. Watching the Olympics at Mikayla’s birthday party
3. Eating ribs made by Justin
4. Seeing Falling Waters – the Frank Lloyd Wright house in Pennsylvania – if anyone is going, we also recommend Nemocolin Woods resort where we spent a rainy morning (Duffy at the spa and Dan at the coffee shop and both of us admiring the bear in their zoo high in a tree) and had a delicious lunch including their homemade potato chips and onion dip.
5. Playing with Kenai at Flagstaff
6. Enjoying a beautiful sunny day with lunch at Jaleo
7. Planning our 40th birthday girls trip to Paris
8. Kate and Larry’s wedding at the Audubon Society – especially hearing Rachel sing and seeing Corinne as flower girl
9. The crispy pork at Bangkok 57 and the shrimp and grits with bacon at Carlyle
10. Seeing ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’
11 The open house in Phoenix and stocking up on cereal from Costco
12. Visiting the new National’s park with a view of the Capitol AND imported beer
13. Meeting baby Emma
Things we didn’t love
1. Leaving
2. The surly woman at the United counter in Baltimore who made us grovel over the weight of our third bag after her colleague said “don’t worry” and after our two underweight bags were already en route.
3. Our jet lag here – although we both slept through the call to prayer last night which is at about 4 am. On previous nights Dan said “I was awake until the call to prayer”
4. Seeing ‘Deception’
5. Having to say “goodbye” to everyone we love again
6. That we couldn't make it to California, Boston, Reno or Juarez

we are happy to feed you pork anytime!
I was more than happy to make ribs for you. Megan was unhappy enough at the quantity that she got (1.5 ribs, total) that she forced me to make them again the next week (Vickie and Tim came over).
I look forward to your next visit, even if it be another year in the future.
