C&d Go to Washington DC



And are able to get FOUR!!! That's right!!!! FOUR National Park Stamp Cancellations in ONE day!!!

You can keep your geek comments to yourself. We are well aware of our painful reality in this regard.

I can't even get started on the debate about the National Parks Passport. . .Where to stamp? How many to put on one page? Should we use the yearly commemorative sticker sets or not? If we do, how do we use them? What about the parks we visited last year? Do we write in the visits? Surely we don't go back just for a stamp?

Really, I fear for our children. . .

At any rate, despite our close proximity to DC, we don't visit often. We love to visit. We just never seem to make it a priority. So this year we committed to actually seeing the cherry blossoms. Ummmm. . .that didn't work out so well for us as you will see from the pics. There were about 5 trees still blooming.

Still, I consider it a great visit. We both saw monuments we had never visited before. We did get to see some cherry blossoms. Did I mention the National Parks stuff? hahaha. The weather was cool and windy but skies were predominately clear. Good day to do a lot of walking. . .So I got some exercise without even having to force myself to do it!
