Idiomatic Expression

This weekend James and I drove up to Harpers Ferry and Hiked Maryland Heights across the Potomac from the lower town of Harpers Ferry. It is a very challenging hike to make it up to the old Stone Fort, but the views are definitely worth it.

Afterwards we hung out at the house (having a place to shower and relax after hiking for four or five hours is a GOOD thing) and checked out the new DirectTV installation.

We couldn’t leave Jefferson County without stopping at the Charles Town Races for a bit. For the record, I lost twelve bucks on two horse races and broke even on the slots.

My Father-In-Law bought a house in Harpers Ferry this month. We are planning on using it as a place to get away from the DC area on weekends. Katherine and I went out last weekend and I took a couple of pictures of the inside, and the view from the deck. My batteries ran out before I could finish taking pictures. Hopefully we will finish the minor work on the house soon. Then we can start furnishing and enjoying the house. Did I mention that it has Potomac River access, and 30 feet of (non-attached) riverfront?

I used iPhoto for the first time to arrange the photos. I am not 100% happy with how it conducts itself, but I am close to getting it to do what I want.

My next set of pictures should be with my newly ordered Pentax Optio S4!
