Rye's birthday. Happy Birthday wherever you are.

This morning I took Route 267 to 66 and drove into Georgetown over the Key 
bridge to meet David for coffee. We had a nice chat outside Georgetown Cafe on 
Wisconsin and N. We shared life updates and talked about family and jobs. A few 
moments later a police escort drove down Wisconsin Ave. It was Vice President 
Harris' motorcade from the US Naval Observatory. Later I felt bad for VP Harris 
because I'm sure it's hard to show up anywhere without too much notice when you 
are accompanied by police motorcycles blaring their sirens. How could I sneak 
into work late if every move I made was broadcast with emergenc sirens. lol I 
guess I'm better off not being the VP. I'll need to remember that for later.

It was good to see David. I will send him a note so we can schedule another 
visit in January. On the way home I stopped for disposable masks for use with 
my visitors this week. They were sold out at the first stop. I found 4 boxes at 
my second stop and bought one box of 50. The rapid covid tests were all sold 
out.
