So really, if you are ever in DC...and most of you who read this live here...GO take a walk at night around the monuments. You'll love it!

DC at Night
Can I just say that I love my city! I really do! I especially love it at night. The monuments all light up and it's so pretty. Tonight I went running after Bible study (yes, at dark in DC. I'll admit, at times I didn't really feel safe especially when I got to the part that didn't have any lights. I took my Ipod out at that time so I could hear if someone was coming up behind me) and I ran down to the Lincoln and back (total of 6 miles...I got new running shoes today and LOVE them!). Whenever I get to Lincoln I have to stop and look back. It's so beautiful! You've got the reflection pool and then the Washington Monument reflecting into the pool (hence the name of the reflection pool). Last year on Labor Day, we took a group to do some midnight walking around the monuments because we didn't have to work the next day so why not? It was super fun and so pretty! The best one had to be the Jefferson.

I could not agree more. I went out one night to take photos of the monuments, but had to stop halfway to the Washington Monument because I was in bad shoes and my feet hurt. But I got some great shots of the capitol and other things. I've been meaning to go back (with a bike! or at least better shoes), and bring a flashlight with me to light up some areas on things that aren't lit well enough, really amazing though.
