    VISIT A MUSEUM

    I’ve been sick this week.  A huge bummer that doesn’t leave much room for blogging!

    So here’s a quick tip to tide you over until my next post.

    Tricia xo 

    For most Washingtonians, Snowmageddon has taken its toll.  We're worn out, burnt out

    and bummed out.  Whether you’re looking for an escape from the snow or require a little

    personal inspiration, a museum is a great place to start.  There are some fantastic exhibits

    on display right now in the nation's capital.  So just when you've begun to question your

    reasons for living here – guilty as charged – remember, we're privy to some of the most

    incredible art (and architecture and history) in the world.  And it's right at our fingertips. 

    People, this is  W A S H I N G T O N   D C.  Snow be damned!
