concise summary

I love DC.

Yeah, i said it, begrudgingly. We spent the last week roaming around Balitmore/Gettysburg/DC. I intend to put up some pics and tell better stories once i sort through Adam's photos.

In the meantime, here's a list of things i am beyond thankful for over the last week:
  1. For Adam's excitement to see the Nation's capitol....our night walk to the monuments and his willingness to drive like an aggressive east-coaster.
  2. For getting to be a part of the wedding of two stunning brides, Ilissa and Lisa, in a venue with 30 foot stuffed pink poodles and sooo much love.
  3. For the fact that the freak snowstorm didn't prevent any adventures.
  4. For the kind hospitality of Elizabeth and Shane.
  5. For Scott and Karine, such amazing friends even when i go into radio silence for years.
  6. For the American History Museum's section on the historical portrayl of African Americans in the US media.
  7. For getting to spend precious hours with one of my three BFFs....love you Derick.
  8. For getting to meet Kristie....and understanding the "popcorn" story ;)
  9. For getting a great hotel rate (haha--seriously a DC miracle).
  10. For remembering what it felt like to feel at peace in a city (and be warm both physically and mentally/emotionally).
