Living in D.C. has been absolutely terrific. There's so much going on here. I have seen many concerts by area ensembles-- Choralis, Washington Bach Consort, Master Chorale of Washington. I have been to museums and restaurants and festivals. Last night I visited a haunted forest outside Poolesville, MD. Today I breifly visited Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park. Absolutely breathtaking. A different kind of beauty than the National Parks of the Southwest. But stunning nonetheless.
I love living on the Maryland/DC border-- I love being able to get into the city easily on the red line of the Metro. I love being able to take the Metrobus to work.
One down side: It's COLD here... and it's that damp cold that cuts you to the bone.... and it's only October. It's going to take some getting used to. I wish my blood hadn't thinned quite so much during those years in beautiful Northern California.
Oh, and I got a pumpkin to carve.
Thus, far, a beautiful fall here in the Mid-Atlantic. Looking forward of more good things to come.
