Oh, don't worry... I know there are great people on the east coast and hope I didn't offend any of them. Guess just being a country boy in the big city was a bit overwhelming. I loved the museums, and saw many things that I'd hoped to see. Being a tightwad conservative, I guess I was disgusted with the ridiculous prices of things and the attitude of many of the vendors I met. They knew they had you over the proverbial barrel, and took full advantage of it. And, yes, like so many, I finally just gave in and handed over the money. I realize what I saw was not representative of everyone there. I'd have to say though, DC proper didn't have much I liked beyond the museums. Guess its what you're used to. I met quite a few nice people at the motel and the museums. They were all, without exception, from somewhere else, there to see the sights like us.

I watched about 12 people pass a bill that cost who knows how many million dollars affecting folks in the Appalachian mountains.... I'm serious when I say 12... There may have been fewer... I guess I expected more folks to have an interest in our country's spending, especially our legislators. Wonder what else goes thru w/o much review. Our tour guide, a staffer for our local legislator's office, (who got us the tour), said that unless someone opposed the bill, it usually went thru like that... wow... just how much DO we pay them for that level of apathy?

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
