Ready for Washington

[Smart Red]

Grands and I are ready for our trip to Washington DC tomorrow. Due to trouble in the area, we've decided to skip school tomorrow morning -- if indeed there is school to be skipped.

It seems someone broke into the armory and took off with 10 high-powered rifles. Someone reported they'd heard rumors of wanting to shoot up a school. Everyone in a 30 mile radius was on lockdown today.

By this time tomorrow we'll be toodling along on Amtrack. Wish us luck.

Also praying for nice weather in the East next week. I sure hope we don't end up walking in the rain all during our week's vacation.

Haven't done a thing either in the garden or with seeds yet. Worried they would dry out while I'm gone. Getting eager to be outside enjoying the creeping spring.

I hope you have a great vacation with your grandkids and that the weather is fine. The train ride sounds fun, I've always wanted to go somewhere by train. Maybe there will still be a few cherry blossoms to see.

Wow, I'd be getting out of Dodge too. That's mighty unnerving.

Tomorrow will be be cold/snowy, but next week is supposed to be lovely I hear. Enjoy your trip!

Good for you trip to Washington DC will be much more educational then 1 day of school. Hope the cherry blooms are still in Bloom. Do be careful and find out what parts of city to stay away from. Sorry thats the city boy in me be safe, enjoy and have fun

Here's hoping you have a great trip. I could spend a week at the Smithsonian, let alone all the other stuff there is to see. Should be a great trip.

Have a great time. Looking forward to hearing of your excursion when you return.

D.C. is a great place to visit. So many things to see. Like Ridge says that Smithsonian is amazing! Have fun and build memories.
