Washington DC

Last Thursday, Mike, Zack and I returned from my first trip to Washington, DC. I was there for pleasure Friday through Sunday and attended Google Search Appliance Training at Fig Leaf Software, Monday through Wednesday.

First impression: a cleaner, more progressive and younger city than I expected. I didn’t have much time to see the sights on this trip. On Sunday, a friend from Kansas City who is now in DC, drove us to Rehoboth Beach in Rehoboth, Delaware. The beach and sun were great, but the water was a little cold.

Does it get any better?

Regular Unleaded: $3.09 / gallon
My car: 2001 Honda Accord

Miles per gallon: 20.54

This is all city driving, but I had hoped for a better gas mileage when I bought the Accord. Its four tiny cylinders.
