I think Kathy and Matt might have won the badass of the year award for their willingness... nay... EXCITEMENT at getting up while it was still dark to share their Together Session with the beautiful D.C sunrise. I have known Matt for many years - dating back to when we were little littles. I am hoping there are no audio [and video] recordings of the songs we used to write and parody. My pursuit of public office would be officially terminated.

So I was up just 4 short hours after my wedding the night before prepping and getting ready. Walking through the streets and monuments of D.C. when it is completely silent and still is just incredible. I stopped and chatted to a few park rangers about monument maintenance [cause I was curious] and even got to see and hang out with Ron who was treating the reflecting pool. Très cool. [there's a cool little image of him at work on my facebook page HERE.

Anyhoo... It was such a treat to spend some time with them both - we even got to bum around GW for a little bit [where they met]. Fun times. Can't wait to spend some more time with them at their celebration next September.
