Post 3

DC in the spring can be a little crazy

First, there are the cherry blossoms:



Then, there are the events that revolve around the cherry blossom festival, like the Smithsonian Kite Festival:



And, every now and then, you have firefighters from all across the country wearing full attire, running up stairs, using sledge hammers, running around obstacles, spraying water, and dragging a 175lb dummy 100 feet just a few hundred yards in front of the Capitol

I like it Eric. Especially your post titles. I'll be sure to read this thing often.

Hey, I don't know if you remember me, but we went to Fiji together, and I saw the link to your blog on your facebook status. The weird part is that I think I saw you at the Cherry Blossom Festival. I remember seeing someone who looked really familiar at the Smithsonian Metro stop, and I am pretty sure now that it was you. I remembered you're from DC and I'm at Georgetown now. I remember your photos from Fiji, and glad to see you're still keeping it up.
