I want (no, need) to see the Vietnam memorial.

EVERY time I go there, I end up in tears ... A VERY moving memorial ... Or maybe just that it was my time period, and I know several people on that wall ..

We're doing DC the few days before the convention. This will be our 3rd time, so we're going for a few of the more "B" list destinations: the National Archives, some more of the Smithsonian that we haven't seen, maybe the Supreme Court.

If anybody wants to try to meet up on Tuesday or Wednesday before the convention starts, lemme know.

Joe has promised me that if I do not speed in San Diego I could boss him around any time I wanted to.

Besides, if I hadn't bossed him around, he'd have been gone after his cycle was over and none of us would have had the pleasure of his company here these many months. ;)

So there Chuck. ! now don't you have some work to do or something?
