Getting to Know DC- Urban Legend. Many people believed that like many other federal buildings here, the White House has a marble facade. In fact, the building is made from Aquia sandstone, a light-gray material from a quarry near Aquia Creek in Virginia’s Stafford County. Because the creek flowed into the Potomac, the stone was relatively easy to transport to the site, and the stone’s malleability made it an ideal building material. After construction was completed in 1800 on what was then called the President’s House, the stone began to discolor and crack. To remedy this, the entire structure was coated in glossy white paint. That’s when the residence became colloquially known as the White House—the name was made official in 1901.

Getting to Know DC- Chinatown. D.C.'s first Chinatown was established in the 1880s along the south side of Pennsylvania Avenue between 4 1/2 Street (John Marshall Way) and 7th Street, NW. Chinatown was comprised mostly of men who had immigrated to the western United States and had then migrated east. Today, the Chinatown Community Cultural Center works to preserve and promote Chinatown’s identity as a cultural destination and offers walking tours and other programs that celebrate Chinese culture, history, language, and heritage.

Getting to Know DC- Martin Luther King Jr. The “I Have a Dream” speech, delivered by Martin Luther King, Jr. before a crowd of some 250,000 people at the 1963 March on Washington, remains one of the most famous speeches in history. The eloquent speech was immediately recognized as a highlight of the successful protest and has endured as one of the signature moments of the civil rights movement.

Physicists discovered that light can be either a wave or particle depending on the viewpoint of the observer. A beam of light is either a wave or not a wave. There is no one right answer. Reality is ambiguous. The only certainty in life is uncertainty. The world is not black or white. It is grey.

Had the pleasure of enjoying the spring menu at thesallydc inside fairfaxhotel. A gorgeous restaurant with the loveliest outdoor terrace for dining; each course was better than the last. And the cocktails are delicious and inventive! It made for a lovely date night with Karl. I again wore this fab dress I got from renttherunway Unlimited; this time without a belt but with hot pink heeled sandals for a pop of color.
Thank you The Sally for the invite and thank you to my mom for babysitting so we could get a night away! #thesallydc

Then headed down to the #dcpride for a good dose of happiness and love... and a bit of dancing of course, my feet are in shreds today, next time I will be more sensible with my choice of shoes..or not, you know😆😄

This frozen fruit cocktail from thesallydc was the best way to kick-off pride this weekend 🌈 And it wasn’t just the cocktail that made it great. ***
Their patio is perfect for people watching - just a few blocks from the circle, which was really fun. We only had to walk a couple of blocks to the parade.
***
About an hour later, we suddenly found ourselves running in the stampede of panic, from what we thought was an active shooter situation. We recognized the hotel as we ran and they let us stay inside. Executive Chef Planas was kind enough to keep us updated and check on us throughout the whole ordeal. I’m so grateful for that! Hope your Pride weekend was full of fun cocktails and patios - not so much panic. ***
