Index

The following is an index, in alphabetical order, of all of the attractions and events which I have visited or participated in, and then written about in this blog.  There are now 570 posts on this blog.  I had originally planned to try to find and write about 365 different monuments, statue, memorials, and other interesting places and events in D.C. so that this blog would be a compilation of an entire year’s worth of attractions for people to visit in the D.C. area.  But the national capital city has so much to offer that despite having reached my original goal, I intend to continue writing about my lunchtime bike rides for as long as I have something about which to write.   And there are literally hundreds of more monuments, memorials, statues, places or events that I have either already visited, or have identified and am planning to visit.  So I should be writing for quite a while.
