August 17

Sunday August 13th thru Thursday August 17th
We visited Colonial Williamsburg on Sunday then drove toward Washington DC. On Monday we visited Jani’s sister in-law Natalie (her brother is in Texas on business) and ended up staying with her for three nights. After finding a kennel for Kira we toured Mount Vernon. That evening Natalie took us into Georgetown for dinner and a walk around the town.
We spent Tuesday and Wednesday touring the museums and memorials in DC. There is so much to see in the museums. It would take a lifetime to see everything but it was fun to see the American History, Natural History, Air and Space, American Indian Museum, and the National Gallery. We also toured the Capitol Building and the National Archives.
Thursday we drove north to Lancaster in the Pennsylvania Dutch country. We’ll spend today looking around then head west. I think our next goal is to see the sites in western South Dakota.

Hmmm - not going to visit NYC or Niagara falls while you're on the east coast?

I guess you have to start heading back SOMETime.

Enjoy the rest of your trip!

Hi Gari and Jani!
It was so awesome to read your site and follow your journey! How impressive and what an accomplishment! Way to go to both of you!

I loved reading about Montana in July, my sister and family live in Ennis where you spent the 4th.

Jani- we have missed you, we haven't even had a book club get-together since you've been gone...waiting for you to return!! Can't wait to see you and hear more about your journey!

Have a safe and wonderful trip home-
all the best-
Amy, Doug, Mason and Chase Marciniak
