I'm posting from my phone, and I can't quite do it correctly, but we've had a good day in the nation's capitol. The highlight for me was lunch in the White House mess, right next door to the Situation Room. Honestly, it's all really exciting in your mind. In reality, I sat in an old-fashioned leather dining chair across from a dear friend and ate a black bean veggie burger. The Situation Room door was closed, and everyone spoke in polite, hushed tones. The POTUS was evidently flying back from Korea, so no sightings, although that would have been exciting not just in my mind.
interesting to be in such an important historical place, eh? Imagine all that has occurred there.
ReplyDeleteHow nice to know someone that works in the Big Place.... . A black bean burger outside the situation room?... now there's a moment. Enjoy your time off on the east coast!
ReplyDeleteI have never been to DC. I have driven through it. Isn't that odd?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're there. I wish you could meet the president and share a black bean burger with him.
Damn! I was hoping he'd be there and you could give him some of your wisdom.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're at least having a good time. The sunshine looks glorious!
It is very exciting in my mind. Too bad you didn't see POTUS, but there is always next term.
ReplyDeleteIm craving a black bean burger now. glad you're having fun!!
ReplyDeleteMy husband got to see him speak once in Alaska...he said it was truly amazing, how he can command an audience.
ReplyDeleteI've been to DC but never to the White House...I need to hear more about that mess hall! I love stuff like that. Glad you're having a lovely time!
