My Summer of Firsts (in DC)
This weekend, I accomplished 3 DC firsts. These were 3 quintessentially ”DC” things to do, that I hadn’t done in my 16 years in the place I call home:
- Visited the farmers’ markets in the Eastern Market/Capitol Hill area
- Cherry Blossom Festival at the Tidal Basin
- Jazz on U Street (Bohemian Caverns, unique atmosphere, good food, great music)
It made me think about all the other things I haven’t discovered in this amazing city and the surrounding area, which inspired me to compile a sort of “bucket list” but for the summer. This is going to be a live list that I’d like to tick off and blog about as I accomplish these things.
