PCS Season 搬家季

PCS在軍中表示我們要搬家啦!

每次搬家都發誓以後不在買東西。不懂衣服這麼多件是想怎樣,更不懂鞋子多到嚇人是為什麼!不提包包了,根本在浪費錢!最恐怖的是清理時都能找到沒穿過的東西,我到底在做什麼啊!

話說回來,搬家工人到我們家時說我們家很整齊很香很乾淨,聽了心情非常好。

First day moving! PCS is military term for moving!

Every time I move I promise not to buy any more stuff. I can’t believe how much clothes and shoes I have! Not to mention purses, what a waste of money! Scariest thing is when I find stuff that I’ve never worn before, what was I thinking?

Our movers told us our place smells good and is very clean. That made me feel much better!

George Washington's Mount Vernon | 華盛頓總統家

Living in Virginia satisfied UN’s passion for American history. We visited Montecello, home of Thomas Jefferson in the beginning of the year. This time we are visiting Mount Vernon, home of George Washington. I like Jefferson’s home, it was the OG smart home before Alexa. He installed a switch that allowed him to open his bedroom doors from his bed, an elevator that delivers wine from his cellar to the living room, and many other automated things. 

But I also adore the beautiful view of the Potomac river from Washington’s back porch, his farm and petting zoo. They said sometimes there are pigs on the property because Martha Washington enjoyed ham, but we didn’t see any pigs that day. 

At the end of the guided tour, I wanted to ask where is the cherry tree chopped down by George Washington, but UN and fellow visitors in our tour group asked many questions regarding Mount Vernon’s architecture and history. Next time you guys go, can you find out for me where the cherry tree is please?


住維吉尼亞滿足UN對美國歷史的熱情。年初參觀Thomas Jefferson的家,這次參觀美國第一位總統華盛頓家。我愛Jefferson家,像是當時Alexa在家。房門直接能在床上打開,酒從酒庫運送到食堂,完全無需人傳遞。但我很愛Washington家外那片超美風景,後院有小型農場能和動物互動。園區人員說有時會有豬,但那天沒看到。

導覽人員解釋完,問我們有沒有問題時,我超想問華盛頓砍的那棵櫻桃樹在哪?UN跟同隊人問好多有關建築和歷史的問題,害我說不出口!你們有機會去時,可以幫我問一下嗎?謝謝!

Chick's Oyster Bar

是家吃海鮮的餐廳,新鮮好吃不需多加解釋。很多人趁著天氣好時來,買杯啤酒配螃蟹腳。但能開船來吃飯應該紀錄一下,不用塞車等車位,更不用等紅綠燈。餐廳後面有船的停靠區,很多人開船來吃飯,超像電視劇Ozark。而且昨天夕陽太正點,開船離開時真的太美了。

A seafood restaurant, fresh and delicious, enough said! Many people  come on good weather days for a few beers and some crab legs, but worthy to mention is that some patrons drive their boats to restaurant’s dock, talk about a fancy way to dine out! No traffic, no trouble finding parking. I thought I was in a scene in Ozark. The sunset was so on point last night that I couldn’t help but capture the beautiful view of the boat leaving the dock.
