Back in the 'Boro

I have three more days left in Greensboro! It's bitter-sweet because I have been waiting for about six months now to get started with the Peace Corps. But at the same time, I have to say goodbye to my friends and my family. Right now, Jodi is visiting me and we hung out with some friends last night. Today, I expect to see some other people and maybe a few local bands.

Anyway, I promised Washington D.C. pictures, and here they are:

Stephanie's Yard:


Georgetown:


The National Gallery of Art:




(This is an awesome tunnel with lights flashing by in the museum. I swear, Stephanie and I were more excited about this than the paintings!)


Paintings from the National Gallery of Art:






Monuments:










Today, Jodi and I are going to hang out in Greensboro! Look out!

15 Days...

So today my dad, Jennifer, and I climbed to the top of a mountain to "Lover's Leap" on the Appalachian Trail. This is in Hot Springs, North Carolina. We almost got hit by large vehicles trying to find the trail. And I learned that if you need to catch up on your Bible reading, just check out the public restrooms, which I found amusing.

I've been hitting up different places, since I won't be around for two years. I spent the past couple of days visiting my grandma in Asheville, before seing Jennifer off to summer camp (she'll be working as a counsler). This weekend, I'll be in D.C. with Stephanie. Updates to come!
