I wish I was there, but I am not. :-(
I’m posting on behalf of Vor Lady, who forgot to bring her computer.

Crepes anyone? This place is three blocks from the Russian Embassy, and near a really neat old graveyard. Right up Wisconsin Ave from Georgetown. If you want to see an interesting landmark, check out the "Social Safeway" in the 1800 block. Meat cases are packed and stacked every day... best veggies in a supermarket, scones just out of the oven, and fresh orange juice squeezed while you wait (early). It will show you how much money plays in DC.

I subscribe to the daily deals at Groupon. Free subscription, different cities, different deals. I buy some deals and have saved and had fun.

Until midnight each day, you can buy the deal, with restrictions. Read, and save. This coupon is good any day. Wish I could be there with you but work supposedly makes you healthy, wealthy, and wise... One out of three ain't bad!

$10 for $25 Worth of Crêpes and More at Café Bonaparte

Check with Seek the Truth, co-chair of the Convention Committee. She may have some tee shirts with her....she was giving some out as prizes on the pre-convention promotion threads. She's already at the Sheraton.

Unfortunately I don’t know...maybe seekthetruth, or one of the freepers upthread will know; there are a couple that live in the area.

I don’t have a schedule of events but you can call any of the freepers upthread who posted their room numbers through the hotel, or try seekthetruth, she seems to know what’s going on!

Have a great time!!

I’m a little far out for casual driving in and out, but I’ll try to make the rally tomorrow and meet and greet. I’m the fat guy with the cane.

Nice to have met a few of you tonight on the 16th Floor. There were freepers from all over America and I feel proud to have spent some time meeting them tonight.

Freepers! Here is the Official Post-Convention Thread at the link below.

There are great pictures from the March to the Capitol linked there and sure to be pictures posted soon that were taken during the Freeper Convention events.

It sure was wonderful to meet so many Freepers and to be able to take part in this historic event! Sure can't say we American patriots were not noticed!!
