DC-To-Do List For Twenty Ten

There no shortage of things to do in the District. From the must-see tourist sights to off the beaten path spots, there's enough to keep you occupied or coming back. I have lived in D.C. for 6 years and have crossed a lot off my check list already (see the Oval Office, check; eat a hot dog at Ben's Chili Bowl, check...). Instead of New Year's resolutions this year, I decided to make a check list of 10 things I haven't done or seen in D.C. yet.

1) Sit in on a Supreme Court hearing.
2) Visit the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.
3) Run the Cherry Blossom 10-miler on April 11th.
4) Have dinner at Michel Richard's Citronelle.
5) Attend a performance or concert at the Barns at Wolftrap.
6) Tour through the 446 acres of the U.S. National Arboretum’s gardens.
7) Visit Frank Lloyd Wright’s Pope-Leighey house.
8) Go on one of the White House Kitchen Garden Tour.
9) Try the shrimp toasts at Four Sisters
10) Cross the motte and explore Old Town Alexandria.

To be honest, I've been to Old Town but I haven't spent a lot of time there exploring. I need to go to Cheesetique and Meat me at the corner and actually see more than the Crate & Barrel and gap outlets ;-)

Just came across your blog! Very fun! And just for the record, I highly recommend Cheesetique... one of my favorite places for some good cheese!
