09/10/16 - On 9/7, Ruby went to work and I did some crocheting, worked on the puzzle and then went out for Thai food with my first cousin, Rick Schlabach and his Kim.  The food was delicious and we had a nice visit.

9/8, I went to my great niece's volley ball game and had a nice visit with my nephew Jay and his wife.  Lauren's team won both games and it was good to see everyone.

9/9, Ruby and I said our "good byes", she went to work and I worked on the puzzle, crochet a while and then started to pack up since I was leaving around 5:00pm for Washington, D. C.  Ruby surprised me and got to come home early so we had some time together before I left and she had to leave for a birthday party.  I left Harrisonburg around 5:15pm and it had just started to rain but I soon drove out of the rain so had good traveling.  The traffic was great and I arrived in the Washington D. C. area at 7:25pm but did make a wrong turn and had to make a big square around to get back to where I was suppose to turn but I found the house.  I did call my nephew Lem to find out where to park and soon I was parked and arrived at the house.  Lem came home from work shortly after that and we decided to go out for Mexican food.  It was very good.  My niece, Rachel then joined us at the restaurant and came back to the house for the evening.  Off to bed
