A year ago, I created a DC bucket list for my fifth year here, as a I celebrated my fourth anniversary of moving to the city. Below is the original list with the items I’ve completed crossed off. So I still have the remaining items to check off, and I’ve also added a few more [...]

After weeks of waffling between cold rains and random warm days, it seems like summer is pretty much officially here in DC.
