Yes I did! I took the usual route in with a slight modification when I hit Downtown DC - about 50 minutes. On the way home I went out through Rock Creek Park. Otherwise I would have had to go West through the heart of Downtown at evening rush and make a left turn on one of the Northbound arteries - very difficult and illegal on most of them. Had a very speedy trip out of the City - hit the Maryland line in 30 minutes. Thursday, it took me almost an hour to get out of Downtown DC. Ran into a little slow traffic on I-95 north of the Capital Beltway this evening, but that's par for the course on a Friday evening. Still had time to order Pizza and have a couple of slices before heading out to the Parade. We made it down to 8th & I in less than a half-hour.
"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"
Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
