…was the last time I was in Washington D.C.
My girlfriend Heidi and I took a trip to Michigan and the East Coast staying with friends and family along the way.
In Michigan we stayed with our former pastor’s family. Their daughter Faye was Heidi’s best friend while Faye’s dad was the pastor at our Russian Baptist church in L.A. From Michigan we also visited Heidi’s grandmother and aunts and uncles in New Jersey. We were in Buffalo, New York and stayed with Russian friends there. We got to see Niagara Falls. We went to a Russian Christian Camp in Connecticut and then got to see parts of Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and made a quick drive through Washington D.C. We were also treated to a day trip to New York City with some other Russian Missionary friends.
Because Dear has a conference to attend we decided to go a couple days early and take in some sight seeing together. When his conference starts I’ll be poking around on my own. It will be interesting to see how much time I’ll end up on the computer. If you don’t hear from me you’ll know what’s up.
I’m hoping to get some before and after photos of these same scenes.
Photobucket replaced all my photos with blurred out versions and they are holding my photos hostage until I pay them lots of money. I’m slowly going through all my posts and trying to clean them up and replacing some photos. Such a bother.
Wow, you’re traveling all over! Enjoy your trip–are you going to visit the FBI HQ? I loved it!
Didn’t think of that Willow…but I’ll check into it!
Can’t wait to see your post travel posts….our girls don’t go until the 19th. Have FUN! Safe travels!
LOVELY, Ellen! Loved seeing this backward glance, and will look forward to seeing/hearing your impressions of D.C. this time. :o) Happy Days, Safe Travels ((HUGS))
Happy Traveling – you are going to have so much fun! 🙂
Love the ’40 years ago’ pic’s! Have a fabulous time…and we will wait for the report when you get back.
I hope you have a wonderful time, Ellen, we’ll be waiting for the ‘after 40 years’ photos !!
Have a good time. I haven’t been there in ages! I always wanted to go in cherry blossom season.
I’ve still never been! It just seems anti-American… Enjoy your trip.
Blessings, Debbie
We sure missed you last night, but looks like you are doing some charming things in DC.
