We have escaped the stifling August heat in DC and are enjoying the cool mountain air in NC. There is nothing better than sleeping with the windows open and spending the entire day outside, with no humidity.

If you do find yourself visiting DC this month, skip the walk and catch a ride on one of the many pedicabs found around the city, take in an IMAX movie at one of the Smithsonian museums or try your skills at the indoor putt putt course at the National Building Museum.

I hope you’ll enjoy these last long lazy days of summer no matter where you are!
