So I had the pleasure of experiencing Washington D.C. for the first time last weekend. I never had any desire to go until the inauguration, which I wasn't able to attend. After that, It really wasn't on my to do list until recently for work. We needed some "Sanity Rally" footage for a show we're working on. Turns out, I LOVE DC! I've always loved history and the mystery behind it all. I knew there was some in DC but the whole city looked European. Like a city in France. Paris maybe. Rich in culture. Every building had a story to tell and it's own charm unlike most places in the U.S. It was refreshing to see a city not so plastic with buildings built in 30 days. These magnificent brick and stone buildings and mesmerizing statues took years to build. I truly believe in a past life, I was around during those times because I absolutely love that era in which they were built. My favorite movies are period pieces.
I didn't really take pics of buildings or sculptures, mainly just rally stuff. Had a chance to check out Ben's for the chilli burgers and YES they live up to all the hype. Actor Lance Gross was there having a bite. I guess a lot of people were there for Howard's Homecoming. I was invited out to a few cool parties but I declined.
The Restore Sanity rally was AMAZING. Jon Stewart and Steve Colbert put on a great show for an awesome cause. Ann, Lisa and I had a blast! I'd say about 500,000 people showed up. Just a bunch of like-minded, beautiful individuals. The signs were incredible. It felt great to be a part of something so positive. My first of many more political expressions. We were able to get some nice footage for our show as well.
