My own DC experience...

I just spent 3 lovely, fun and food-filled days with my girl Jeannie in DC. I'm so proud of Jeannie! She's a suburb-raised wonder, now living in the gritty nation's capital! And thriving! Well done, Jeans!

I love DC! Its so eclectic and cultural and vibrant...and it was buzzing with the election nearing! People are excited!

A couple of my favorite shots from the National Portrait Gallery:

A contemporary take on the Statue of Liberty. In light of this monumental election, I felt drawn to her.

One artist's take on Oakland. I think this is how I've always seen Oakland...gray, gloomy. But GQ's Oakland is actually very lovely...ok, true, he lives in Montclair...but I think that's part of Oakland.

We also got to see the African Children's Choir perform. I fell in love with these kids.

You'll never see the beauty of the changing seasons out west like you do out east. *le sigh* Lovely.


Thanks, Jeans...I had a blast...
