We can’t stop by the cemetery without visiting my favorite statesman/dog lover/grandpa. I miss his wisdom - and these days, I *really* miss his righteous thunder. We usually agreed on politics, and when we didn’t, it was always a pleasure to try to defend my positions against an adversary so brilliant, challenging, and (at least with me) generous. 💙💙💙 https://ift.tt/2CJp4Gx

Thought it was fitting given the weather. It’s quite cheery. Quick stop. We are off to grab some grub. What do y’all do on a rainy day? https://ift.tt/2I8NQAw

Stopping in at @aproofdc to accept an art delivery! I have been at Artist’s Proof close to 3 years now and I have learned so much about what it takes to run a Gallery. This week we are prepping for our next exhibition Perceptions vs. Reality: Featuring paintings by @shar_coulson. The opening reception is this Saturday from 4-6PM and Shar Coulson will be giving an Artist Talk at 5 PM. The gallery focuses on local and international emerging artists. One thing I really enjoy about my role here is getting to speak to people about the artists we represent and what they are currently inspired by! Also, I get to bring Cooper to work with me everyday! https://ift.tt/2EvU27M

Hello DC! I met you a couple of years ago. Having come from the Midwest, I found you to be magnificent right off the bat. I’ve always appreciated diversity and you did not disappoint. I love walking down the street and hearing 3 different languages before I reach the corner. I love that people wear suits despite the stifling heat and humidity this place produces. I love seeing the internationality of this place. LOVE. You’re full of rich and poor alike. And homeless. I see you all - black, white, yellow, and brown. Gay, straight, bi, trans (and anyone I forgot) I appreciate you all. I appreciate you for our differences, and I enjoy finding our commonalities. You’re full of intelligent people like nobody’s business. I’m so excited to have the handle today bc I actually want to get your advice and perspective on some things. Stay tuned. The day is full of possibilities! I dig that about life! For now enjoys these flowers on this dreary - but still beautiful - day. https://ift.tt/2zpztFh

I love this part of DC for its history. These row houses were built around 1908 by the famous DC architect Charles Gessford. The once famous Tiger Alley lies behind these houses and has been renamed in his honor. #easternmarket https://ift.tt/2IyH6fp

If you haven't been to @falafeldc, get your butt over to Georgetown! This falafel sandwich shop is a nonprofit that helps feed refugees around the world and provide former refugees with jobs. Bonus: their falafel bowls and pitas are only $3. #thisisnotadrill #sharethemeal http://ift.tt/2uTNKp0

We're talking softball... Team USA (yes, our manager named us that) is enjoying another successful season in the congressional softball league http://ift.tt/2vh6Ghw
