Leesburg, VA (USA)

Mollie got up on her own at 0515 (she told me later she’d been awake since 0400).  She packed up her bags and ate breakfast (muffin).  She also made lunch (bologna and cheese sandwich, peach, snack bar) and then we drove over to Nicky’s neighborhood so she could perform her dog sitting duties (0600).  About 30 minutes later, we left for Leesburg (via VA-7) for Mollie’s Internship (my Day 6/7).  We arrived in town at 0715 and, since we'd already eaten breakfast, spent about an hour in the Target store, getting our steps and buying a birthday present for my sister.  I dropped Mollie off at the Equine Medical Center at 0830 and drove to the Rust Library to do my telework day.  At 1645, I returned to pick up Mollie and we left shortly afterwards.  On the way back to Alexandria (via US-15, I-66 and Fairfax County Parkway), we talked about her Internship day (nurses talking, London County HS shadow student, her school projects) and her favorite superheroes (DC versus Marvel, unchanging characters versus ones that personally grew and improved).  We arrived at Nicky’s by 1815 and I said goodbye to Mollie there.
