Whilst we slumbered (how many weeks has it been??), a new day dawned, a new President arrived and now the ground is covered in snow. We thrill to a new administration's first steps, eagerly devouring news of each development. And we are reminded that it has been going on in this town since 1800.
This year brings a new page for all of our strolls characters as well. A new story line for the Civil War tour. A revamping of the 1960's tour. Some new ghosts will be revealed in October to join old favorites on the Ghost Story Tour of Washington. Even though the hush of snow blanketing the ground tempers the sounds of the City, we are buzzing like little busy bees inside, mending hoop skirts, putting historic images in order and writing scripts for characters to learn. And the search goes on for a proper stovepipe hat for Mr. Lincoln to wear!
In the mean time, try this to warm your self during this chilly season:
One cup of Apple juice, add a stick of cinnamon, a tablespoon of honey and heat for a few minutes, stir and drink (take the stick out- ouch!). Mmmmmmm.
