To everyone out there that reads my little blog (however small that group may be), my great apologies for my lack of writing to you this Summer. Although I haven’t been writing, it doesn’t mean this Summer hasn’t been such an amazing one so far. My latest post here was a post from Flickr of the photos from our visit to the D-Day Memorial on this year’s 66th anniversary of D-Day. It was a humbling day, and I was so honored to have the chance to meet veterans, young service members, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen.

Something I’ve been meaning to share is the weekend I spent in Washington, D.C. from June 25th to June 29th. It was by far one of the greatest weekend’s I’ve ever had. While I still plan to write about the trip, right now I’ll just share all the photos we took on the trip to tell the story.
