You may find the reason I need to visit Washington DC unusual, but here it is. The only time I’ve never been was when I was four-years-old. Richard Nixon was president at the time. Yes, I need to return.
And you know what? I still have vague memories of the visit.

And it’s not a long trip–I mean, relatively speaking. Plus, I never do mind road trips if the destination is worth it.
But had things turned out differently, my drive to the nation’s capital would only take little more than three hours…
