dc with the locals

 

A few weekends ago I visited some college roommates in DC.  After we graduated we spread out but a few from our group are living in DC.  Most of us hadn’t seen each other in a year so there was a lot of catching up and a lot of change in all of our post-grad lives. It was kind of an impromptu trip but turned out to be a great weekend of memories.  Hot memories.

We visited during the 100 degree days and walking around the city was not a cool activity.  Well worth it though.  We visited Eastern Market to see the produce, art and the small permanent used bookstore.  (A few of us made a pit stop again later that evening for the most delicious gelato too.  So good!)

One of my friends works at an urban farm in DC and I loved learning about how many farms there are inside the city!

We trekked around the city, walking everywhere we could in the short time we were there.  We stuck mostly to local activities and cute residential neighborhoods, making a brief detour around the Library of Congress, Supreme Court building and the back of the capitol, which is currently under construction.

We visited Union Market, a favorite of our local friends.  DC is one of my favorite cities and it was great to walk around some new places with locals and see sights and markets I wouldn’t normally see.  From college to alums, we are still pretty good at sharing rooms ;)  Love you, friends!
