Obama, Welcome to my Old Hometown

Today is perhaps one of the only days I miss Washington, DC just a smidge. I was fortunate to have been part of it all when I lived there - the political process, the international intrigue, seeing the guts of the governmental cogs and wheels. Oh, sure, my old apartment on U St. would be right along some parade route, down the street from an inaugural ball... Drat.


I've found a new home in NYC that I love beyond belief. But today, I feel blessed to have known our Nation's Capital as few have, and say 'Welcome home, Mr. President.'

We've been thinking a lot about DC lately. This is the bicentennial of Lincoln's birth, and the Lincoln Memorial is being rededicated. Sounds like a good excuse for a visit, especially now that we've got a president we're proud of again.
