Driven past many a time sure, but never stopped. I'll never get a better tour than the one I got way back then anyway and all the barricades they've had to put up since then would probably depress me

You reminded me, we visited the Smithsonian too, the one with the pendulum, the Washington and Lincoln Monuments and Arlington as well while we were over to see Mt Vernon. Saw Kennedy's grave whose death was still fresh in people's minds back then.

Stayed at the Sheridan, which I'm not sure even exists anymore. If it does, I'll just bet the rates have gone up a bit since then.
