First off "Justified" continues to impress. No time for a review, but some news. FX ordered seven eppys at first and the ratings went through the roof, it's second only to the network's "The Shield" during its hay day when it premired though has cooled off, they've ordered seven more to air two months after eppy seven.

This means if you don't catch it, you'll have time!!

I'm taking off tomorrow for a week with my mom! Buses, trains, and planes, oh my! But I should be on the train through D.C and see the cherry blossoms :D


Hope you guys have a wonderful week. I can't wait to have one without alarm clocks or schedules.

Have fun...did a girlfriend trip for week last April in DC during the Cherry Blossom Festival...it was beautiful!! There were 5 of us plus family and friends of one of my girlfriends...lot of people to keep up with...would have rather gone with one or two...less stress. But it was great fun!

Safe trip...we'll keep Sheppy warm for you!!!!

Is it worth dealing with the Metro and an hours drive to actually attend the festival? My mom and I keep trying to decide.

Truthfully, no. We were staying in Laural,MD and had only a short drive to a Metro station but the trains were extremely crowded and we left for DC the day of the Cherry Blossom parade at about 7:30 am. The crush and the wait to get on the train was worse in DC itself. Then at the end of the day, we left around 5 pm...the station near the Washington Monument was a mob scene. As long as it doesn't rain, I would go into DC the day before or the day after if I had it to do over again...the blossoms will be just as pretty and all those people will be gone...but it is beautiful. I love DC...be sure to go to the Newseum...it was wonderful. They have a very moving 9-11 memorial, an entire wall of newspaper front pages from 9-12 and part of one of the towers is there. They have a real guard station from the Berlin wall and part of the wall itself with all the graffiti on it. Also a great gallery of news photos. It was nice, about 20 bucks to get in but I thought worth it.

Have fun and please we want details!!! OH...and don't forget the National Art museum...the Matisse room will make you feel so happy!

Safe trip!
