FRIDAY Sandy picked us up after lunch and we headed down to the shore for the weekend.  Andy was a presenter at a One-Day Bootcamp Trial Training for Young Lawyers (case of the day was Sacco and Vanzetti) so he was going to drive down in the evening afterward.  The three of us had an uneventful drive, and not long after our arrival we headed off to dine at the new Yacht Club (figuring, correctly, that the house would be warmed up by our return.) We were just entering the restaurant when Sandy's cell phone 'rang' (gotta love Andy's barking ringtone) with the latest crisis. Andy had misplaced his van keys, but as it turned out his spare pair was NOT with us in Sandy's glove box (at least a 3-hour drive from Baltimore) as she feared, but at their home.  The other good news was that Eddie was available and willing to drive over to their house to retrieve the keys and deliver them to Andy downtown.  Never a dull moment!  Andy arrived at the beach house not long after 9:00, so I was still awake to greet him after his long day.

SATURDAY It was in the low 30s outside when I woke up, so I declined to shop the weekly Farmer's Market (which runs every Saturday, year round) in the park that abuts their property.  Sandy likes to shop there whenever they are down for the weekend, and did pick up a couple of things.  

While Sandy was shopping I looked through the manual for Evidence Boot Camp with Andy Levy (he teaches Evidence one semester each year at the University of Maryland Law School) and 'debated' certain rules and distinctions.  Always enlightening to discuss law with him.

After lunch I bundled up and walked over to the park's community center for today's small craft show.  There wasn't much there that interested me, though I did buy a raffle ticket for a stunning batik quilt.  Someone has to win, so it could be me, right?

We whiled away the rest of the afternoon playing Rummikub and nibbling on all sorts of goodies (kettle corn, bay seasoning potato chips, and chocolate) and drinking wine.  I was the only one who never won any of the games, but I'll probably survive my shame.  Instead of going out to dinner we decided to just stay in and continue our healthy eating: pizza!
