Washington DC








Last week I was fortunate enough to head out to Washington DC to visit with my older brother. He received a promotion from work and there was a ceremony to celebrate this huge accomplishment. It was a great weekend. I have been to DC a number of times so we hit a few spots not yet explored. Gettysburg and Mount Vernon. Gettysburg has a brand new visitors center with a theater and a 360 degree original painting of one of the battles with a life like narration. It was AMAZING. I am not big history buff and I found it fascinating. It also helped that my brother has studied these battles in great detail and was a terrific tour guide. Mount Vernon was equally impressive. The best part of the trip was hanging out with family and some of Mark's friends. We laughed and ate a lot. Thanks again Mark for a great trip and congratulations!
