52 hours in DC/Baltimore and the Red Envelopes.
We just got back from a whirlwind trip to DC and Baltimore. We had about 52 hours there.
The W Hotel in DC sure was pretty.
The BIG event was a family reunion for Kat's Father's Birthday. We assembled for a feast at the New Fortune Chinese restaurant.
Cousin time...
Then it was back to their place for the "surprise".
Daughter got some gold!
The boys all received red envelopes with cash, both American Dollars and NT(New Taiwan) Dollars.
Later that eve, Kat and I had a table at the POV bar at the W.
Nice view.
Two more hours of site seeing in DC on day #2.
Then on to Baltimore, where it all began...

The old house...
sixteen years between these two pics...
Fell's Point.
Dropped the kids at the Admiral Fell so we could grab a pint and a steamer of shrimp at the old watering hole
Met up with some old friends.
A few hours of site seeing in Baltimore before spending the next twelve hours in airports.
I made this twisted metal rod handrail for a house we gutted and rebuilt before we left Baltimore. Fourteen years later and it's still there.
