Looking back on previous blog posts, I realized that I never blogged about our second set of visitors...big surprise! We are trying to get better at blogging and if I do say so myself, I think we are improving.
Anyways, clear back in April a really good friend of mine, Kate, and her friend from college, Christina, came to visit us for a long weekend. We had a really great time hanging out. Unfortunately we didn't get to hang out with them as much as we would have liked because Matt and I had to go to St. Louis the weekend they were here. But they found lots of stuff to do and had some city experiences. They were in a parking lot and had a hit and run. Some woman backed into her car and sped off. Her bumper got dented but a short while later it popped out. Her bumper obviously got cracked but it is almost impossible to see. Then on their way back to our apartment around 10 pm they got lost in a shady part of town and wound up on a street with lots of police cars. Come to find out on the news the next day, they were right by a double homicide crime scene...good thing they drove by after the fact!
This week, JD and Sara, Matt's friends from Washington, IA, came for 3 days. They took a vacation that made a big circle around the Midwest. Many of their friends have moved away and decided to go visit them. We were their second to last stop. We showed them around the city and took them to Lynchburg. Lynchburg is the home to the Jack Daniel distillery. It's kind of funny that the world's best selling whiskey is located in a dry county. Even though we didn't get a free sample like many distilleries offer, it was still a great time.
