365 #18 - Sunday, January 22

Today I am thankful for the awesomeness of strangers.

We went to church today in what would be our new ward, Poughkeepsie (poo-KI-psee) First.  We were waylaid by half a dozen people.  I spent half an hour with a member of the bishopric, we sat for half in hour in Primary, we both talked with the bishop's wife for 40 minutes after church.  Busy, friendly, awesomeness.  The Clarks even invited us over for dinner.

In the end, we felt we needed to meet up with Aki more, so we got lunch at the mall food court and meandered down to Queens.  Again, no traffic.  We got to her place without knowing her address.  We headed for the Astoria Ditmars subway station and found her house from there.  We were early, so we found a parking spot and napped for an hour we were both beat.

Yes - Katrina was with me the whole time.  But I couldn't say that until we were home.  Security measures, you understand.

We passed a lovely afternoon with Aki.  Tim came over about 6, we had a very nice dinner, Tim left about 10, and we chatted some more, got to bed around midnight.
