Mr. Mecomber Goes to Washington

You don’t think he’s gonna go to Washington, D.C. without me, do you?!

We are seriously thinking of visiting the city, perhaps this year if the opportunities go as planned. There’s a good chance we may get to see it; I’ll keep you posted!

We have actually been there before, and we love the city. It is so full of history! And of politicians, but those can be ignored. It is so romantic walking around the Washington Monument at night, with the city lit up. I loved seeing it. There’s a lovely “Moonlight Night Tour” of the Monument that I missed last time, and I’d like to take it this time. There are truly so many wonderful things to do in Washington, D.C. that we could stay there for a month and not see it all. I’d looooove to go. We haven’t been to Washington in.. OMG it’s over 20 years now. And I had missed seeing the Capitol Building, which is a long-term goal of ours.

We’d love to make our stay a nice little second honeymoon… but I have no idea how we’d be able to go without taking the kids– they’d be so upset! But now that they are older, we could all go and still Mr. M and I could find time to have some quiet time together while we left the kids at the Smithsonian for a day, lol.
