Any excuse to make a trip north to see Tina I took full advantage, this excuse came during a mid-season bye week. The weekend gave Tina and I an opportunity to spend some much needed quality time, so we met at about the half-way point between Davidson and UConn -- Washington D.C.. We stayed in a great hotel and hit all the tourist spots in the city. It was the first time I had been in D.C. since I was real young and really enjoyed it. We made trips to all the Government buildings, the
Museum of Natural History, the
Holocaust Museum,
Arlington National Cemetery and some awesome bar that had a 100 beers on tap. It was a typical Tina and Zach trip as we jammed as much as we could into a couple days. I would say the highlight of the weekend would be visiting the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The Soldier, pictured on the right, is guarding the sacred tomb of unknown Soldiers from WWI through the Korean War. Its an absolutely unbelievable ceremony and I hope everyone has an opportunity to experience it. Recently I asked Tina what her best memory of this weekend was she stated "I had the absolutely best Caramel Macchiato from the
Starbucks in the hotel....everrrr." That figures but either way we had a great weekend and were sad to see it end.
