I had a LONG week full of meetings. But Friday finally came! And Friday was PAYDAY! My first one! Yay!
Wednesday, we opened a local bank account. They didn't give us any checks though, and it will be 7-10 days before we get our debit cards. Don't guess we'll be using that money!
Thursday, J had been talking about going somewhere this weekend. I had been in meetings all day and was exhausted, but googled away. I found this cute B&B called Captain's Quarters hosting a mystery weekend. 5 minutes later, we had booked a room!
Friday, I had more meetings and some work to do. J got his NC license, got a (terrible) haircut, and an oil change. We packed our bags and headed to Edenton! It was a little under 3 hours. Not too bad. We checked in about 5 with the mystery beginning at 6. At 6 we had hor d'oeuvres and read part of the story. We then drove around town and got some ice cream. (We had filled up on hor d'oeuvres.) Saturday morning, we woke up with coffee and bread in the hall. At 8:30, we had an amazing breakfast. At 10, the hunt began. The clues had us going into different shops downtown. We enjoyed looking around at all the shops. We finished in just under two hours. We ate lunch and went back for a nap. When we woke up, we worked on solving the mystery. Saturday night, we had a 4 course dinner. It was SO good! Sunday morning, there was coffee and muffins in the hall, then we headed to breakfast at 8:30. Again, the food was amazing! There were two other couples there, and we read our solutions to the mystery. We were the closest!! We won t-shirts. We were excited our solution was the best! After we checked out, we headed home... only to turn around because we forgot to give the key back. Oh well, it was a great weekend! So glad we decided to go. Pictures in the next post!
