GRRRR!

Today was THE WORST DAY for LDT sightings. Tom and I woke up around 8:30am, showered, and left for Dover around 9:15. We stopped at McDonalds in Smyrna - what a great experience! Everyone was very friendly, the food came out fresh and promptly, and it was a nice sunny day. After we finished eating, we got back on Rt. 13 to head to Dover. This weekend is Race Weekend at Dover Downs - it's where the big Nascar races are held twice a year. Dover was PACKED with RVs, trailers, etc. It was mayhem down there. Luckily, we didn't hit any traffic. We drove through Dover and we didn't see ONE plate until we left, and it was a high one (in the mid-700s). In general, I was pretty disappointed at the selection (or lack thereof) in Dover on a Friday morning. The one good thing was that we found the reserved parking spot for the secretary of state, who has tag #3. We headed back to Middletown, where Tom would head back home and I would go to pick up Paige.

I took my dad's Saab up to Wilmington to get Paige - had the top down the whole ride. We drove through Greenville since it was on the way home and saw a few good plates - a lot of double-digits but I had already seen them all. I think I ended up with six total pictures for the day. I drop Paige off and go home to upload my pictures. I connect the cable and transfer the pictures over and BAM they're all grey. I lost ALL my pictures from today! Ugh I was so upset. Like Tom said, I guess it today wasn't meant to be. After a short nap, I headed upstairs to cook dinner. I washed this salmon fillet we got at Costco and rubbed in the potlatch seasoning from Williams & Sonoma - mmm best stuff! I threw the salmon on a cedar plank on the grill and made some rice and salad. My mom called me while I was making the rice and she informed me that they were just checking out at Costco and had to stop at Giant. I was pretty mad about that, since the food had to sit for about 45 minutes! Ugh! I got over it though haha.

After dinner, I weed-wacked around the yard and then my dad and I washed our cars together. Aww. How bonding-ish. Now I'm just chillin here. Tomorrow I'm going to Julian's lacrosse game in West Chester and then I'm taking Roberto, Julian, and hopefully Paige to F.C. Kerbeck in NJ. That will be fun! Shout-out to Danielle!
