Three beautiful things from my past week:<\/p>\n
1. We played volleyball until past seven on Saturday. We were exhausted, but the sun had been relentless, the skies cloudless, and the humidity punishing all afternoon. By the time our court was finally shaded by park’s tree border, we couldn’t just leave. So eleven of us played on, pouring our all into the final matches, clothes soaked through, but sunglasses finally abandoned, before we packed up for the week and headed for supper.<\/p>\n
2. Rebecca, my D.C. friend, as opposed to dearest Rebs, turned 25 this week and invited us to join her birthday celebration Friday evening on the roof deck of Union Market. I met a couple of her non-volleyball friends, but otherwise got a chance to spend time with the Saturday volleyballers in street clothes.<\/p>\n
3. The heat and humidity broke earlier this week and this afternoon’s baseball game required a sweatshirt! <\/p>\n
