A Penny for Your Thoughts 10-15-2026
One of the attractions of the Nation’s Capital is the opportunity to enjoy the arts at internationally-recognized museums – the Smithsonian Institution, the Phillips Collection, the Children’s Museum, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, and many others. Add the many live concert and performance venues and the unique and significant architecture of the various monuments (one of my favorites is the Navy and Marine Memorial along the George Washington Parkway in Lady Bird Johnson Park; the sculpted seagulls above the waves honor sailors and soldiers who lost their lives at sea) dotting the landscape and you have a guidebook that can take years to explore.
