The Life Chronicler
Project

Washington is, of course, the capital city of the United States and so I made sure that I got to see as much of it as I could. I did a lot of walking around and visited The White House, The Mall, The Jefferson Memorial, The Washington Monument, and one of The Smithsonian Museums. I took a boatload of pictures and even became a semi-professional photographer myself. No fewer than three people asked me to take their photo.

I actually stayed at an Airbnb in Falls Church, Virginia. I did that to be near McLean where I gave a speech to The McLean Rotary Club. It seemed to go over very well as it prompted several questions and many made comments to me afterwards. It is always an honor to share my journey and my project with whoever is interested in hearing about it.

I spent a considerable amount of my time getting caught up on my writing. I also took in a church service in Falls Church. I think I needed it, to be honest. I seem to be experiencing a bit of mental fatigue even though my Southern Journey has just begun. I guess 175 nights on the road since May 1, 2022, by yourself can do that.

Well, it’s on to Richmond, Virginia, next but first I will make a pitstop in Charlottesville to visit the campus of The University of Virginia.
