Yay! Got my last voucher so now I have a free $20 at Food Lion. Free wine! Woo hoo!

The Fosters Grille racing car in Marshall lit up with Christmas lights.

How about these leg warmers then? They're the bees knees!

Spent the evening at the Czech Embassy in DC with Margie listening to Shin Dong-Hyuk, the only known person to have been born in Camp 14 in North Korea and to have escaped to tell his tale. He autographed his book for us.

Found a cute Christmas store run by an elderly couple in Winchester, and spent a happy hour or so rummaging around.

Went with explorer friends to visit the Aspin Hill Pet Cemetery in Maryland.

After listening for over 51 hours to the superb book, A Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maugham, I eagerly sat down to watch the movie with my all time favorite female screen star, Bette Davis. But alas, it skipped the first third of the book, leaving out his childhood, and then skimmed over the rest. It was probably a good movie in 1934 when it was made but really fell short of my expectations. Oh well.
