This past week we got a call from Mike Smart saying that he would be in town with Carolyn and wondering if we could get together for dinner one evening. We worked it out so that we met them Tuesday night at the Gaylord Convention Center at National Harbor. This is a new, hugh meeting and convention complex that they have recently built over on the other side of the Potomac River. It is about 45 minutes from our house. We met them and went to dinner at McCormick & Schmidts. The dinner was good, but the company was wonderful. We had a chance to catch up on the things that they are doing and had a wonderful evening. We snapped a couple of pictures.
One interesting thing that we found out is that Carolyn is a champion rower. She competes in the area where they live and regularly beats much younger rowers. She has won a number of rowing tournaments.
After we finished dinner we had to walk about five minutes back to the convention center where they were staying and it started to rain. By the time we got back to the hotel, we were soaked. It just added to the enjoyment of the evening. Driving back to our house, the rain really started to come down and we had a "goose drounder". We made if home safely and had a great evening.
