Back from DC

Misty and I left Sunday morning and headed to DC. It took about 5 hours at a leisurely pace. Virginia is a pretty state to drive through. Lots of autumn colors in the trees and rivers flowing under the highway. We got to our hotel and I passed out on the bed while she got ready for the show. Then we headed to DC around 5pm. If you have ever driven in Washington, DC, then you should be able to feel the following pain. Every road is full of conditional signs. Sometimes the road is one way, others it is two. Some you can't turn down during certain times, but you can others. The lanes aren't very clearly marked, and the stoplights are on the sides of the road, instead of above it. The drivers don't really care who is where and are constantly switching lanes, stopping in the middle of the road, or whatever else they feel like. The cool part is, you can do pretty much whatever you want and the cops didn't seem to care. They were everywhere, but being that close to the white house, they probably have better stuff to worry about. There also must have been something heavy going on, because there were several roads that were completely blocked off by police. After I dropped her off I drove around for a while, and then parked and walked around. I couldn't find anything too cool to do, but just sight seeing was fine with me. It started to get dark so I went back to the hotel. I picked Misty up around midnight, and we went on an adventure to find food. Nothing was open, so we looked up a Buffalo Wild Wings on her phone and got directions. After a disastrous 30 minute drive through DC and into Maryland, we got there only to find out that they were closed. So we headed back to the hotel and ended up at Bob and Edith's 24 hour diner. We were in bed around 3am and got up at 8am to head home. We got back to Greenville in time for me to go to ERP and Distributor Research.
