Today I arrived in the nation's capitol for my eight-week internship at the EPA. Just a couple things I love about DC in the first few hours....
-Taxis have NPR or C-SPAN radio on when you get in...nearly all of them...find another city where that happens.
-You see famous people (well famous in a political sense, not a celebrity sense). Senator Byron Dorgan (D-ND) was on my flight from Detroit with his wife. While walking around Pentagon City this afternoon I saw CNN's John King loading up his car with his daughter. It's just refreshing to realize that people you see on television are real people like you and me.
-There's a sense of energy and purpose in the air. This is by far my favorite part about DC. You can feel the power in the air and it's a very neat thing.

But after a weeks now clearly your favourite thing about DC must be DC United right?
