A little excursion

 Now that I think about it, I know why last week went so fast... I left!!

We made a little excursion to visit  family - and had to explore a little bit!!



Sunset from the Wharf in Georgetown. We headed that way to go to dinner at Farmer Fisher Baker - and it was really good, it was also a very young vibe. Lots of partying in the bay - lots of Yachts that probably cost more than my whole house!  Fun to see tho

From there you can take a trail along the Potomac so we did and headed to the Monuments. I really wanted to hit the Women's Vietnam Memorial in the Dusk - I love the Look at night. So we did!




It never dawned on me that Women would not be seen as Veterans just because they were nurses... So cool to see something dedicated to just women. 

Of course - we had to take a photo op on the river too....It has been humid in Colorado, and surprisingly the Humidity in DC was LESS that it was here. Still made my hair frizz. I have come to accept it haha

After the Womans Memorial we headed to the Lincoln Memorial- only to see a super cool new monument going up. It opened the day we flew home - so we will have to go see it next time without the construction 



You can read more about it here: https://monument250.usaa360.com/

I think its going to be pretty cool - and it sits at the feet of Lincoln. 

I think it takes just as much work to get ready to travel as it does when we get home... sigh
