Tomorrow I get to go to ...
Our nation's capital for the week, or at least until Thursday night.
I was in D.C. last March, and never got to see one historic anything, because by the time I got off work, it was dark!!
This time, I have 3 nights - Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights - to do a bit of site seeing when I get off of work.
My client is in Silver Spring, MD. So if any of the Castle Denizens are in the area, let me know - we can go have a drink or something.
I will be going there at least one more time - but I think that will be after Daylight Savings is over, so I am really looking forward to this opportunity to see things I've never seen before - hopefully, the Capitol, the White House and Washington and Lincoln Monuments - just the outside, it will be too late to do any tours, most likely.

I haven't been to DC in over 10 years, I'm envious! Maybe you'll get to meet the Castle's Latin Perfessor ;-)

If you had someone to walk with, I would suggest touring them at night. The mall is packed with people even until midnight, and it is spectacular to sit on the steps of the Lincoln memorial and look down the mall.
Also, the new WWII and the Korean war memorials are STUNNING after dark. Especially on a summer night, if the air is at all humid, the Korean War memorial is just eerie (statues of a platoon patrolling a rice paddy and faces etched in granite).

Why of course Madame, we'd be glad to sprare you the ignomity of having Scotish Cuisine again in Laurel.
Boss has me coordinates. :)
