between brunch and a BBQ with friends on labor day, we took a quick little afternoon trip over to the national arboretum since we were in the neighborhood getting frosties at wendy's. should i be embarrassed to say the main reason we ever end up doing anything is if it's driven by food? i guess that's just how it is in our family.
anyway, the national arboretum is great. we especially liked the national capitol columns. you can read about them here.
