Returning from Hanover

Sunday: MB woke at 6AM to say goodbye to her parents and others. I tried to continue sleeping, but without much success. Decided it was a good opporunity to get a jump on the day, so morning practices. Sent an email I'd been avoiding. Shower. MB came back up as I was getting dressed. A bit of "breakfast" down in the lobby (odd egg sandwich sort of thing, etc) with D & K. After more goodbyes we shoved off around 9:30.

Made good time on the drive back. Stopped for veggie burgers (except for A) at the Vince Lombardi rest area. Hit a bit of traffic on the GW bridge. A jeep SUV, travelling right behind us, hit its breaks, fish-tailed, rammed into the center divider, ricocheted across three lanes, almost hit the back of our car, before coming to rest at the far right. We continued unscathed, but slightly disturbed. Arrived at my mom's around 3. Unloaded her stuff, and transferred ours to MB's car. Continued on our way. MB took up driving at the first rest stop in MA. There had been an accident at the corner of R 16 & Mass Ave. Several fire trucks an ambulance and three or four cop cars were on the scene, even though it seemed like no one was hurt. Dropped A back in Davis.

Back home briefly, Gus seeming no worse for the wear. Then repacked and off to Guitar Circle. We arrived around the same time as Martin and Alex L. Circle tonight was circulation work in C Major. Up and back in 4 octaves, 1st pos and 5th pos. Triad work.

Back home, email. We're both feeling beat so, soon to complete the day and bed.
