Visiting Virginia with a morning in DC

[Gary Blanchard]

We are in Leesburg, Virginia to visit Carol's son and his family. We took the train down yesterday and Rob is taking us around to different places. This morning we went into DC to the Botanical Garden. It's really neat and informative. Here's some pictures.

Daniel is the oldest son. He is ten and already a great musician, playing pas, piano, and drums. We had a bit of jamming in the afternoon and Daniel amazed me. (His mother was working and his younger brother was in school.)

Very cool. I always enjoy visiting places like that.

Spent the last 5 years in the Montclair, Virginia, area up there, just South of you. Been back home Warsaw just under a year now. We’re getting a break from the humidity the next few days, hope you do up there too. Good timing to be down.

If you hit Norfolk, let me know!

Today we're just hanging out with the family, which is nice and relaxing. The6 are having a barbecue later. I'm all for a chill day.

Leesburg, nice! I'm about 30 minutes down the road just outside of Frederick MD.

The US Botanic Garden is an interesting place to visit. I was just there a few weeks ago.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your visit to NOVA.

I have no idea what we are doing today other than treating them to breakfast. I know tomorrow is another fun nine hour train trip.

I wish I could have met up the local folks. Being somewhere without a car sucks.

Nine hours?! Where are you going?

Nine hours?! Where are you going?

Everywhere on the east coast between Alexandria and Springfield, MA.
