This almost makes me forget I'm exercising

Matthew is training for the Marine Corps Marathon this October, and has inspired me to run more. I do this 4-mile run occasionally. When I am good, it is 3 times a week-or when Ethan gets up early. I was taking a ton of pictures this morning, so I only ran about half of it. People started assuming I was a tourist and offered to take pictures of us together. I can't believe all of these beautiful things are within miles of our house!! This is Arlington Cemetary.

Tomb of the Unknown Solider up on the hill to the right.

Rosslyn.....you are probably getting tired of this landscape.

The three spires are the Air Force Memorial

Looking over the Potomac at the Memorial Bridge back into Virginia

Golden men on golden horses guarding the bridge. Don't let Ethan's blanket fool you. At the end of August we are still sweating at 7:00am into the sweltering, soggy air.

Kennedy Center

Lincoln Memorial, and Army guys running towards us at alarming speed

So many cars already...
