Today was our last day in Maryland for a while. We celebrated the closing of our Maryland chapter by visiting The Narrows, a seafood restaurant right on the Chesapeake Bay. And I mean right on the bay. We sat out on the deck, and the water was right below us. We enjoyed an overpriced but tasty seafood lunch, and took some pictures out on the wharf. Pictures attached.

... showed up--another first-time visitor.

That was it. Just us and three other adults. And the pastor's kids. Now apparently, there are more people who usually attend, but not today.

The service was like a little Omega service (from our time in Ohio). The music was played from a CD player, and Pastor Buie did some good ol' fashioned black preachin'.

Afterward, he invited us to dinner at ...

We exchanged stories; she told us about some of the ministries she's involved with. We just chatted like friends who hadn't seen each other in a while. It takes an incredibly social person to do that. She was. Naturally, before we split ways, we exchanged facebook information.

After she left, Kelsey noted "Well, I just realized that I gave my name, my ...

The beginning of this week I got to experience going to Delmarva, which is Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia. Lance and I traveled together and I got to learn a lot and see a lot and gain lots of experience. We first landed in Washington Dulles. We drove to Ocean City, MD. It was a nice little city on a beach. We went to experience the Boardwalk in ...

... the back, leaving him paralyzed for life. But he went back to school and is now pursuing his doctorate in English.

Come to find out, this boy was in the alternative education group--for troubled kids who are too disruptive to learn in a standard classroom.

We were both encouraged to hear some positive feedback from a kid. It had been a while. And it is what keeps reminding us that what we are doing is worthwhile.

... an amusement park.
The beach at our campsite was just as nice and never crowded. There were two ends open to the public but the rest was just campers.
This part of the vacation was much more relaxing. We spent a lot of time at the beach as the weather was very hot the whole time we were there.
On one of the days we were there we drove to Deleware which is less than a one hour drive. The girls were thrilled. They have ...

We stumbled across this restaurant just because it was the closest place to our hotel "The Coconut Malorie Resort" and were amazed by the food, the extensive wine list (at a GREAT price) and most of all the amazing view! Every night this restaurant times the sunset with a symphony we had too many drinks by this time to remember which one) and the sun goes down on the last note.

... the ferrets for a walk along a mini-golf course that seemed to lack both patrons and a reason for existing. I think the main attraction was the ferry that shuttled people across the bay rather than the stunning rubberized greens and sloping brick lined fairways. But there was grass lining it so I took the ferrets and sat down on a rock to pore over my maps and figure out what I was going to do. I never really realized, though I should have, both how much ferrets love to dig ...

... about the weather and the army experience. The day we were issued all our military gear and clothes I saw a sign on the wall of the distribution center saying something to the effect that we were in the best dressed military in the world. Unfortuneatly they didn't have my size boots, they were a half size too small. In order for my feet to fit in them I had to remove the insole that ...
