You feel like driving south from DC, about an hour and a half, love to host you.

Besides, my Perception XT should be in the Smithonian! Could be part of the exhibit

Lots of Pelicans around here and a few right near where you're gonna be in DC.

Subscribed. I'm planning a vacation at the moment to visit DC in the next few weeks. Any recommendations are welcome. I want to get there before schools are out and the real vacation season starts. Or, does it make any difference?

I'm a complete travel novice. I really don't even like to travel or vacation, but I figure I might as well see our nation's capital while I still can. The Holiday Inn looks to be right smack in the middle of things.

For one day, I'd like to rent a car and drive out into the countryside. Seahawk, I might take you up on your previous offer. I thought I'd stay Sunday through Saturday sometime in late April or early May.

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but any info might benefit procon, too. He's a lot closer than I am!

Off Topic - I will be in town (sylva) Friday the 16th through Wed the 21st.

It sounds like you are busy but if you have time Friday afternoon for a glass of wine let me know. I was about to send you an e-mail.


Yeah, my new years resolution lasted about 2 days.

Your a better man than I, Jay.

Procon, how long are you staying?

Jim, do you mean you're gonna be in the DC area?

Milt, this is not a great vacation season. Weather sucks right now and the fed. gov't. closes at the mere prediction of less than 1" of snow. There is some great countryside in VA for 911 or motorcycle driving. But this ain't the best weather for it. Lemme know what you wanna see and I can give you some tips. Some well-kept secrets are a tour of the Pentagon, sitting in on committee hearings in Congress, foreign embassy open houses, phenomenal hidden ethnic restaurants and even some Potomac PCA or Dorkiphus P-car events.

No Rick I have a vacation home in the same town as Procon and I am heading up later this week to stay there and unwind for a few days. Maybe take the kids skiing for a day or 2 next week.
