Columbus, OH 8-8

A lovely day today. Low 80’s and low humidity. We did our yoga and then hit the road for Columbus. Lori took us to Riverside Hospital, she had something to deliver and we got to see where she worked. She really loves her job at this hospital. She is an oncology nurse and works the night shifts full time. She part times at another hospital closer to home sometimes.

Then we went to Lindsay’s apartment to see her home and meet her boyfriend Jared. Her apartment is real original looking, they kind of look like row Victorians from the outside. Her place is where the door on the left is. Lindsay then became our navigator to exciting places like Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods Market. We then had lunch at a wonderful Mongolian BBQ restaurant. It was the best one I had been to. Then we headed over to the Polaris Mall. A huge indoor mall with a lot of class. Many of the stores had fountains inside them, and one store had a pianist playing a grand piano. Very clean and we walked our legs off. I only bought a few candles, such restraint! Lar spent the time sitting on the central couches making friends when he wasn't trailing after us. He only went because he wanted to see Lindsay and her place, the shopping he could have probably done without.

We got home around 6:30, had leftovers for dinner and crashed! The first day in a really long time that we weren’t stewing in humidity.



This is Jared with Lindsay. Lindsay is 22 and in her 4th year at Ohio State University in Columbus. She's going to be disgusted with me, but at this moment I can't remember what she said she is majoring in...something to do with Social Work I think. Jared has a degree in Psychology.

Jaclyn, whose picture was posted yesterday is 20 and in her 2nd year of Culinary College. Apparently whatever she is learning is top secret, because she hasn't cooked for us yet!
