A modest effort in keeping our family and friends informed of our whereabouts, our doings and our brilliance. (Ok, maybe not that.)

Friday is Always a Good Day

It occurred to me that my last post could have been about any place - the SAAM building is beautiful but it doesn't necessarily look uniquely like DC (at least the picture I put in).
Soooo. . . . .
See? We really are in DC!

A nice walk around the Mall late in the afternoon and a quick visit to one of my favorite gardens - right behind the Smithsonian castle. Yes, those are sego palms. I do not know how they keep them alive in the winter.




Real fun was in the evening. We got to see phenom pitcher for the Washington Nationals. We never thought we'd see a nearly sell-out crowd cheering baseball in Washington. But they certainly were.
And to really top it off, I ate a hot dog and it was everything I dreamed of. Aaaahhhh, America's pasttime.

Oh, by the way our absolute favorite form of transportation:

See? We can be green. Although it really is all about the convenience!

  1. Holy crap you are skinny. You are worrying the heck out of me! I did like the part where you said you ate a hot dog though.

    I'd say I'm jealous of all you're doing - but it all looks utterly exhausting to me right now. So I'm super glad you two are enjoying yourselves!
