Things I'll Miss

The end of our current DC adventure is a few months off. I am really looking forward to moving back to the western part of the country where there are real mountains again. There are not a lot of things that I will miss about DC, but there are a few. Today Andi and I hopped on the Metro and got off at a stop we had not been to before. We walked around and took in the sights for a few hours, found a nice little pizza place for lunch, and enjoyed good food. Last night there was an Air Force party for people who were just selected for promotion to Lt. Col, and we both ran into people we had not seen for years. Tonight we will have dinner with good friends are in town for a year, and tomorrow dinner with my cousin who just moved here. This (unlike Boise) is a place where people come. Finally, as I sit in our place and glance out the window, this is our view. You can actually get immune to seeing the iconic sights of our nation's capital, but every now and again, you just realize what is around you. And it is nice.
