Washington
DC
and San Antonio, TX
August 2004
Can you believe it? The nation's capitol and
Texas in one week! You cannot imagine what a culture shock it can be. First, the
nation's capitol is not a "nice people" place. Oh, sure, it's nicer
than New York City but it is a far cry from San Antonio, Texas, home of really
nice people. Yes, we're sure there are some "not nice" people in San
Antonio but we didn't meet any of them.
First, we spent an afternoon at the Mall in Washington
DC. The Mall is not a Mall, it's "The Mall" which is where the
museums are. The Capital is on one end and the Washington Monument is at the
other end. We started at the National Botanic Garden which is a very cool
conservatory. We ended at the Museum of Natural History in the Gem Room. Mostly
we did flowers.
San Antonio was a different stripe. We went there
to do a three day conference for business and really had a great time.
