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…

  Hey there!  It’s hot out there.  Let’s pick blackberries from the woods out back then stay inside and look at links! First, I think this is hilarious.  I hate the phrase “I can’t.”  Maybe I’m already an old person? Have you seen these Serengeti selfies?  It is a pretty cool concept that uses the online…
