I can’t really tell you where September went but off the top of my head I can’t remember going on any really exciting trips. Mostly I seem to sit in the hotel room and watch tv (yawn).
I did have a nice date last weekend. We went to lunch and then to see the new Ocean hall at the Smithsonian Natural History museum. After having been to some really great aquariums across the country (with real, live animals) this place was a disappointment (from my perspective) as it had exactly one (1, uno, eine) tank of fish: everything else was either dead (in formaldehyde) or skeleton. I’m sure that the youngsters were intrigued (I had to push several on the floor and climb over them to see the cases) but for an adult, it was boring. The Hope diamond room hasn’t changed. Had to push the Asian tourists out of the way there so we could see them (I know that sounds harsh, but having been to Asia and seeing how they act in crowds, it wasn’t a big deal).
But the visual highlight had to be the coffee stop at the National Gallery of Art’s sculpture garden. I’m sorry, but I just couldn’t resist:
Was it rude of me not to say anything?
