dc. making the transition.

i've been in dc now for 40 days. i absolutely love it some days and other days i just feel complacent. the problem is not dc, rather it is that i am longing for another place. you guessed it - nyc.

however, my friends are coming down tonight to bring some nyc cheer with them! and i'm discovering there are a lot of things to do in dc, but getting friends to do these things with you is the tough part.

on my list:
tour the pentagon
tour the us naval observatory
visit some mid-century design buildings including this museum, and this house
learn to be a trapeze artist
visit many many many restaurants still in the queue (although TH and i are doing a pretty good job of knockin those off the list)
hike/fish/camp in the shenandoahs
outlet shopping in leesburg
antiquing in virginia (near charlottesville)

those things could take up the rest of the summer, along with shows and trips i'm already scheduled for.

how is the summer so good at breezing right by?


garden update: everything we planted is sprouting, minus the broccoli. we'll work on that.

also, don't forget to enter for the cute rug giveaway!! last day to comment is july 15th!

too many restaurants in the area to ever get...but it is a worthy goal.
