Johnson City in Matching Outfits

Friends. It finally happened. For the first time in our relationship my wife and I wore matching outfits.

One of our adventure items is a card game called SeRVD where you can play cards for the other person to take an action.

Saturday July 29th was planned by my lovely partner because I had played one of these cards on her. As we were getting ready she played a card on me that requires me to wear clothing of her choosing.

I do not wear shorts very often… I never wear shorts, unless I’m swimming until today when I was ordered to wear my newest pair of nice shorts from REI.

I have a matching clothes picker card in my deck and I had been saving it for a day for us to wear matching outfits and since the opportunity was presented, I played the card.

It took us a moment to find matching shirts as we had just started a load of laundry, but we were able to pull it off with our matching Fight Opera t-shirts.

On this day trip we: Ate snacks, visited an antique store, purchased many postcards, visited the childhood home of former president Lyndon B. Johnson, at pizza and discovered a new adventure. The national park passport.

Sufficeth to say we have been researching other national parks and have also signed up to a website for logging/tracking this information: parkstamps.org.

Another item worth noting is the page in Wreck This Journal that I was able to complete.

Throw something dipped in paint. Here is the evidence.

That first throw gained me no points, but I did earn somewhere between ten and fifty on throw number two.

There was also this quick side quest card. Keanu oversaw the completion of this one.

It was a great day!

I should send a thank you postcard to the rangers and to the volunteer that conducted the house tour.

*record scratch sound*

Oh, but wait.

There’s more.

While cleaning the car (and making sure we had car insurance in the glove box) I found a lost postcard!

Also; here is a preview of the new post cards, though I am noticing that some, such as the cavern postcards from the 1980s, are missing from this picture.
