I got up very early to go run, and then go into work to check in. I was greeted by a former Iwo Jima Sailor and a former Porter Sailor, both who work at my school now. It was nice to see some familiar faces. I then rushed home to change, and go to Providence to pick up Mike from the airport. It was so good to see him! It had been 2 months, which seemed like forever. We drove back to Newport, and walked around the area. We walked all up and down Thames Street, and had some drinks and lunch at O'Briens. I would go there again for drinks, because they do have an amazing bar. The food wasn't the best, but I would go back in the spring just to enjoy their outdoor patio. We continued to explore Thames Street, and headed back to my place. We relaxed for a bit, and then changed to head out to Buskers to Bear Down and watch the Bears game.

Day 4
Moving day. We woke up early, I made us breakfast, and we waited for the movers to come. We met them at my storage unit, and had them move about 10 boxes into my house. I must have my winter coats and sweaters! After the fastest Navy moving experience to date, I made a nice lunch. Then we unpacked some boxes and relaxed a bit. We decided tonight would be perfect for a date night..so I suggested a romantic sunset walk and dinner. I am glad he went along with my plan! We walked along the pier, sat in the park on a bench, and watched the waves and the sunset. It was nice to just relax. The sunset was blocked by some ominous clouds, so we left a bit early and went to Celtica for a drink before our dinner reservation. We had dinner at Rhumbline. It is a nice little house on Bridge Street. We had an amazing dinner here. Mike had the Veal Osso Bucco, and I had Pork Tenderloin. This has to have been the best meal I have had in months. So amazing! I can't wait to have another date night here!
