DCDC Outing

The DCDC (aka DCEC) finally managed to get together for a cultural outing. The destination was the Frederick Douglass National Historic Site, Cedar Hill.



I had been wanting to visit this site for many years. I was very pleased to have finally made it! I  had read Douglass' Autobiography and found it amazing. What a remarkable man Douglass was!

We had a private tour of the house and were very impressed with the excellent guide. We learned quite a bit about Douglass that we had not known prior to our visit.

Here are the ladies walking up the hill toward the house after visiting Douglass' Growlery. (Mary in the white shirt, Jodi in the turquoise shirt, Synthia in white, and Ginny in black and white.)

After our visit to this interesting historical site, we went to the Hill for a Mexican lunch at Santa Rosa (315 Penn SE).
