So my first week up here was spent driving around to every wal-mart in the area.....there is nothing super about the supercenters up here. I also made a few trips to the Home Depot, as well as the cable company. As exciting as those places were, that is not what I had in mind when I was thinking DC might be a cool place to live.
So the second weekend I was up here, I went out for my first real outing. A walk around Washington DC. What could possibly be more exciting than walking around DC. For the record, springtime in DC means beautiful cool weather. Being from Texas I am used to hot muggy springs, but this was not the case.
To be honest, I was pretty excited about seeing all I could see, and snapping photos of everything. I have this fascination with seeing things live that I have seen on TV, and who hasnt seen DC on TV.
Here is a photo hike, of where I went. I didnt go into most of the places and i just walked around the Mall to get a feel for the area. I hope to provide future posts that are more specific to the individual places.
