Back from DC
We’re back from our jaunt to Washington DC. Had a nice time on the beach in Ocean City, MD, watching the fireworks. I’m sifting through my photos and will post a few choice ones to the photography section in the next day or two.
Oddly enough, our blogmate Faust happened to be in DC at the same time quite unexpectedly. Abigail and I met Faust and T at Zed’s in Georgetown for Ethiopian along with Kirsten and her husband + child. We’re hoping that Sir Faust posts his camerafone take of the city.
There were, happily, lots of East-Coast-meets-Midwest moments on the trip, and it was great to see all our DC friends. We miss you already! (A special shout-out to Letts Hall on the AU campus!)
In other news, as President Bush toured Graceland with the Japanese Prime Minister, the Bush twins were apparently having a toga party at the White House. We got to see many young people getting photographed and strolling into the White House wearing togas that night as we wandered the perimeter of Lafayette Square. There’s fun to be had when the cat’s away.

My name is Letts Hall, and I live on the AU campus. Dan, although I am little more than a building and should not have the ability to write responses to blog posts, I have to tell you I enjoyed your presence within my confines while you were here. Your wit and charm went a long way. I didn't appreciate the numerous holes you punched in my walls when you were mad at "your" woman or the many latrines you busted in one of your drunken outbursts. But other than that, I enjoyed your visit. Thanks for giving a shot out to me. Buildings so rarely get shouts out. Usually those are sent to people. In fact, I hear that your friend Abigail was more than a bit disappointed that you sent a shot out to me instead of her. It made her break a latrine. But anyway, I digress. Come back to DC soon. LH
Thanks for writing, Letts. Yes, your friend Abigail was much fun, but you were so dank and humid. I wish you would clean your carpets, Ms. Hall. I'm not sure what you mean by "latrines"—obviously, I am not in the army and even so the men's restrooms don't have urinals. Very little to break in there I'm sure.
Of course I will come visit you again, Letts Hall, when time permits. Say hi to AU for me.
