GO LINCOLN!


One of my favorite websites, mentalfloss.com, had a posting today on one of my favorite monuments that I thought everyone (DC locals or not) should check out. Apparently today is the anniversary of the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial in 1922. Check out the site to read all about it!

Correction!

Sorry all! The big thing I missed in my "May Run-down" was the most fun part ever! LCs sister and nephew came to visit, too! That was the best week of my life (happy Lindz?). :)

Missing Blogger

Sorry to all (3) of you who read this blog regularly--I've been out of school on my one month summer break since the beginning of May, but I've been busy:

LC's mom came to visit and so did my sister and brother in-law (who announced while they were here that they are happily pregnant with their first baby!) And we went to a Nationals Game at the brand new awesome stadium.

I traveled to Los Angeles for four days but I didnt see Jimmy Kimmel and it didn't really look like this:

It looked more like this:

I dont think I like LA.

Immediately after I returned from the West Coast, LC and I travelled to NYC, which is for sure in my top three favorite cities (Chicago, London, NYC). I saw Strawberry Fields (which I had been dreaming about my entire Beatles-loving life):














And the Statue of Liberty:

Honestly, I thought it would be bigger. I mean, at least 2 or 3 feet high.

And we drank beers outside for hours on end in Little Italy.

Good Times.

I've also just started blogging for a new site about Washington, DC's Green Movement. None of my pieces are up yet, but keep your eyes on Paint The District Green.

So, yeah...I've been a little busy. But I'll try to get back on track! Peace!
