A last look around the yard before heading to the airport today. A surprise lily on the left, and a hibiscus on the right.

Roger took Amy and me to the airport, with a stop on the way at the Bean for some rain pants. Got some new shorts as well, and Amy got a fleece jacket. Still had plenty of time to hang out at Dulles waiting for our flight to Boston – like five hours, because the flight was late leaving for Boston.

Which meant that the cushion for the next flight evaporated, and we had to make a mad dash to the international terminal (on foot, because we didn’t see a shuttle option), get back through security, and to the plane just as they were putting the final touches on the boarding process.  Whew!

Amy and I didn’t have seats together, and there was no time to try switching.  I scored a great alternate seatmate, originally from Edinburgh, and we chatted some, but mostly just read or tried to get a little sleep.  He did suggest I try a lager called Innocent Gun.  I will have to look into that.
