It's you... Not Me

Vatti(-in-law) and I are heading east today; to the nation's Capitol. We had originally planned on a trip to Las Vegas, but since I've been there twice already this year, we decided to go elsewhere. I wanted to go to New York, but it is likely too warm for me given the city and the amount of walking we would do and Steph wanted us to go some day (hopefully next year). So, since I have family in the D.C. area, I thought seeing the nation's Capitol would be good for Dad. I haven't been to D.C. in almost six years and am looking forward to it. We (my family) used to go out there once or twice a year to visit my two aunts (Bette lives in Bowie and Diana lives(ed) in Lynchburg) and see different parts of the Capitol.
The Capitol of any nation is something to take note of. It is simply amazing the amount of corruption that exists even in light of the reverence one feels when in the city's core. Berlin and London are two other Capitols I have been to and both have their own sense of power. I'm hoping that we take a lot of photos and see a few more things - or simply from a different perspective - than before... Bon voyage!
