Comfort Creatures

 This morning, Christian and I were invited to take a Barre3 class
with some of the gang who we met yesterday in the home office.
That was sooo cool.
Then after, the gang suggested a million places 
that we needed to visit.
Today, we settled om going to 
The (Goonies) beach, and
Astoria Column
It took us 146 steps to get to the top, where we made paper airplanes
from the paper that our talks were typed on and threw them off the top.
They twirled down gracefully to the bottom.
It somehow felt symbolic.
Then we visited the beach where they filmed Goonies,
and saw Mikey's house and the courthouse and the road where
Brand rides his bike.
It was cute.
Mostly, it was just fun driving around with Christian,
looking out the window, listening to music, and talking.
We reminisced about the time in 2017 when we spoke 
to a group of sister missionaries
 in New York, stayed in downtown Manhattan, 
and spent our time in the hotel room binge-watching Stranger Things.
IN MANHATTAN!
The place where you can literally do anything, see anything,
and eat anywhere.
What can I say? We're creatures of comfort.
