So yesterday, we signed papers to sell our home in Coudersport. It is amazing to me that it sold before we even officially listed it…. this in a county where properties can sit unsold for over a year! We are so very grateful. Anyway, we had papers that needed notarized, so we went to Old Town and had it done at a UPS store (Shout out to KYLE who was amazing). .. and also got it shipped overnight back to the realtor/ lawyer. After that, we did some very minor exploring (due to my wonky ankle I can’t walk much or far) in Old Town Alexandria. There are so many awesome buildings here! We stopped in a bookstore, a Tibetan shop (mostly jewelry, but also masks, clothing and such), and then we went to Hank’s Oyster Bar. Hank’s is a swanky, upscale, local favorite. There are several of them in the area (small chain)… and they are amazing. Our waiter was fantastic… and Jim and I got to try several varieties of oysters .. something neither of us have ever had. Their whole menu was incredible. For the ‘main portion’ of our meal, I chose lobster bisque soup and a side of duck fat potatoes. Jim had the Mac N Cheese, and a side of Peel and Eat shrimp. YUM! Of course, we shared. For desert, we shared a fruit Panna Cotta with a fruit glaze. So very good.
