I spent Saturday evening at Lockhouse 6, a 50′s style house on one of the locks of the Potomac. My work buddies are ambitious with their social planning, and I like it. We made a couple pizzas with a nice assortment of vegetables; one with eggplants and onions, another with artichokes, olives, and feta (that was my favorite). I’m in the minority as an omnivore in that crowd, but it worked out well. Cooking was a good time, and we followed it up with some board games and hearts. The midnight hike along the towpath was fun too, despite the chilly night. I’d like to bike the 186 miles of the c&o canal at some point (and maybe the 330 miles to Pittsburg) but for now I’ll settle with seeing the sights along the way.
And, lest you think I’m lame, I went to town at the dance party that followed. You really have no need to worry about music volume when you’re in a lonely house along the river.
