Honoring Dr. M.L.King on Obama’s weekend


Washington-20130120-00573

I was in Washington, DC last weekend for the presidential inaugural and had a damn ball!

The highlight for me was the Martin Luther King memorial. I was a bit disappointed because king’s memorial is located on the other side of the capital behind the Washington monument. The walk was long and a struggle for so many senior citizens, but they were determined to make it, bless their hearts.

The weather was perfect on Saturday and we parked at the metro train station near our hotel in Maryland and hopped the metro train all day, which was the best way to get around Washington, DC.

That’s me, yours truly in the photo (ABOVE) in the midst of the crowd. The memorial was packed and it took half a day just to get there.

Later on that evening, we had dinner in Georgetown at an outdoor restaurant, bar and grill. The food was fabulous, I had the pasta.  🙂 I might share more pics after the snow break.

    1. Tracy never tell who she was with???
      *************
      The limelight is Tracy’s not the other persons. If I were with her, I wouldn’t want to be exposed in the pictures with her. That’s a bit too personal and besides maybe she don’t want her man in the camera hell, maybe he don’t want to be in the camera. This is her blog why expose the person with her?
