I'm excited to report I get to cross another thing off my list. I just got back from a work trip to Washington DC. I think I fell in love with that city. I don't have many pictures of me on the trip. This one will have to do as proof I was actually there. Trip highlights include: staying in the nicest hotel I've have ever stepped foot in, Arlington National Cemetery where I had a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye the entire time, the Holocaust Museum where I couldn't hold it in anymore and balled like a baby, the Iwo Jima monument, and getting caught in the presidential motorcade. I didn't have nearly enough time and would love to go back. I need to work in that city someday. That's all there is to it.

What a fun work trip! Lucky you! I bawled when I was at the holocaust museum, too. Isn't it amazing!? (Well--in a sad, depressing type of "amazing"...) I mean the MUSEUM is amazing--not the holocaust. Glad you're back. We'll have to get together soon.
