a bitter disappointment, or, all dressed up and nowhere to go


My co-worker showed me the newspaper clipping yesterday - George Washington was going to make an appearance at an historic house and it wasn't too far for us to get there! Too exciting. There was to be a wine tasting first and then the talk. We appeared, in the rain, after the wine but in time to see the man himself, only to find a full house and no way to squeeze inside the building. No way to see anything, even if we'd wanted to stand in the rain. We had to turn around and come home.

But we are hoping we can get him to come to the library. Who knows? After all, Queen Victoria came.
