Washington DC put it on your bucket list. I know what you’re thinking-seen plenty of pictures tv, movies etc. besides it’s history ick. I don’t need to be right you shouldn’t miss it. Fun! Going to the SE in winter, typically mild, seemed like a good idea, cheaper not so many crowds . Off we go much to our surprise it is cold -very cold. However it was worth the chilly temps, necessary layers of clothing . No crowds, beautiful clear skies and light snow. For those of you that are grieving I found strength and awe looking at the monuments, visiting our White House, Senate, House. archives, all spoke to me of the hardships, determination and unwillingness of our ancestors to give up. We come from hearty stock. I will try to use our peoples history, our history on my roller coaster ride of grief. Walking many steps with my family ( Lucky me.) so much to see, visit, seemed to awaken me to respect and love for our legacy. I found myself thinking, “What will be my legacy?” Still working on it.
