Wedding in Washington DC

December 23, 2008 · Filed Under Pat 'n' Steph, Travel 

Still recovering from the jetlag, we’re back from Steph’s cousin’s wedding in Washington DC.  Steph’s cousin works for the Dalai Lama, her husband is a lawyer for the Federal Reserve Bank, and the whole family is full of interesting people.  The wedding was beautiful, with the ceremony held under a chuppah or Jewish wedding tent. It was full of rituals, including a Tibetan prayer.  We had a great time.  Here’s a picture of Steph and I on wedding day:

Of course a trip to Washington DC wouldn’t be complete without a visit to The White House.  Here I am standing in front of the south lawn, future home of President Obama’s vegetable garden:

I know a number of garden bloggers and readers live in the DC area, but I was too busy with family matters to try to arrange meetings with anyone else.  Maybe we can try another time.

I have a huge backlog of emails, posts, comments on other blogs and discussion lists, seed orders and additions to the seed network to go through.  Have patience, I’ll get to them all in the coming days.  A few blog posts or discussion forums might have to go without input from me however…

To everyone celebrating holidays in the coming days, Steph and I wish you all the best.

    Great picture of you and Steph! Lynn, the kids, and I went to DC last August. Great trip! In addition to all the typical tourist sites, we visited Obama’s Senator office.
