I've visited DC sporadically since I left in summer of 2001. Maybe once or twice a year - usually straight into Gallaudet and out. The weather was great and I had no set agenda so I decided to "backpack" around the Capitol and into the Mall for the afternoon. My rucksack was maybe 30-40 pounds so it was quite a workout. I have an abrasion on my left hip - note to self: do not wear low rider pants and hip length shirt. The belt strap from my rucksack rubbing against my hip for almost two miles in three hours.

Since it's a pain uploading pictures with text - I'm uploading the pics in the next post..
