Washington, DC

Quick post again...no time to post too many words.  Training has been great over the past week.  I was in Washington, DC for a conference and I was able to get up every morning and go for a solid runs around the monuments and even over to Arlington.  It was awesome...oh, and really friggin' HOT.  Today I am going to get back in the pool and try to get in a bike ride if possible later tonight on the trainer.  Below are pics from my trip.  Cheers!

 Oh my gosh, it is the Washington Monument!

 Yup, there's the Capital Building

 Not sure about this face, I guess I expected to see Obama.

 The Lincoln Memorial...

 ....and there is President Lincoln himself (behind me I mean).

 I was unaware that they were renovating the Reflecting Pool when I was there.  It was bizarre to see it like that.

 And of course, I had to swing by Georgetown Cupcakes to get some treats for my little girls back at home.  They love the show DC Cupcakes and were thrilled to get some for dessert when I arrived back at the homestead.

Here is the outside of the shop....the line was only about two or three people deep.  I was told that on the weekends there can be up to an hour wait.  For cupcakes?  Insane!!!
