Coast to Coast

It was one of those weeks. I started in San Francisco and ended in Washington, D.C. After looking through my pictures from the week, I came across these three that I really liked.

While I was in San Francisco, I got a chance to drive over the Golden Gate Bridge, stop the car, and walk onto the bridge. It was windy, and the further I got out on the bridge, the more uncomfortable I got. I know that it would take a strong blast of wind to pick me up and over the railing, but somehow my nerves didn't get the message.


At the end of the week, I drove through Washington, D.C. to get to National Airport and my flight back to Boston. I was a little early, so I stopped on the National Mall to look around. At 9am in the morning, it was already sweltering hot. I don't know how I survived living in the D.C. area in the summers. But, the sky was blue and the Smithsonian Museums looked as grand as always.

Near the Smithsonian Castle is an old carousel. We used to take our children there when they were small. No surprise, but they always liked going on the carousel more than the Art Museum.
