Washington DC



Danny and I took a late anniversary trip to our nation's capitol.  I was sick the first two days and couldn't leave the room - which worried Danny but at least he got to see the golf tournament.  We visited the capitol and took a tour, toured Mt. Vernon - home of George Washington, and drove around Annapolis.  Missed out on seeing the Temple.  Being sick took a chunk of time out of our trip.  We did, however, get to eat turtle soup and yes, it's as good as I remember from over 14 years ago.   We also ate Indian food but missed the chance to visit the Ethiopian restaurant.  Our hotel, the Saint Gregory,  had a life size Marilyn Monroe in the foyer.  What more could a guy ask for?

At first I though he was standing next to a look-a-like, then I realized it was a statue. Thats a pretty picture of the capitol, sorry you guys didn't get to see the temple.
