Washington DC 2003

It's the nation's capital--and a city of spies, at least according to the International Spy Museum. Washington, D.C., is one of my favorite cities to visit. Museums, brewpubs, an easy-to-use subway system, and the overall feeling of something big happening always make the city exciting.

Since this is my sixth trip to Washington, I didn't take a lot of pictures because I've already got pictures of so many different things. A few selections are available at right.

The real reason I went to Washington, though, was to attend the annual dinner and membership meeting of the U.S. Senate Youth Alumni Association, of which I am the Northern Regional Director, and to welcome students and help at the mentoring tables on arrival day for the 41st U.S. Senate Youth Program. I was fortunate enough to be selected to attend the program in 1990, and I enjoy helping the alumni association continue its mission.
