The Country Mice

After a busy morning of spelling, math and c-skills, we headed out “across town,” as the locals say.

So easy to drive around here — I don’t get lost, don’t need to pull over with a map or GPS, don’t need to make U-turns. I still remember the short-cuts!

We take a quick detour to Long and McQuade to pick up some music theory books because we ran out of time before we left home. We’re working on music theory every day because we’ve left the instruments behind for an unprecedented period of time. Paperwork has a bizarre appeal to these children.

After a quick stop at the altar of all things Gore-Tex (Mountain Equipment Co-Op) we wander down a few doors for some pho. Vietnamese noodle soup. I was informed by my beloved Mary that I should know whether it’s Ba or Ga.

Clearly some research required.

I still remember the holes in the wall — lunch for three at $7. Including tea.

Goofy pic but I like the light.

And the lunch.
