…hang out at the Jefferson Memorial on one evening, preferably with your sweetheart. Watch the planes. Watch the traffic around the Tidal Basin. Hear the din of the city. Take a moment and read the panels with Jefferson’s writings and then imagine, if you will, how totally revolutionary his ideas were for his time – as axiomatic as they might seem to us today.

Thank you all. This is a great thread, and I’m passing it on to my son who is interning in DC this summer. He is beyond excited with his locale.

In fact, I’m burning time on CC waiting for my husband’s plane from DC to arrive back in CA after he spent the last week helping my son get settled for the summer. I’ll be visiting in July with our younger son and know first hand the hot, humid weather.
