Well, dragon boats anyway. Saturday and Sunday there will be some entertaining-looking boats racing up and down the Potomac while various activities happen on land. Get over to the Thompson’s Boat Center in Georgetown on 10am Saturday for the kickoff, watch some races from 11am through 5pm and watch Yo-yo, Kung Fu and dance exhibitions between 1pm and 3pm while you wait for the awards to be given out around 5pm. Sunday’s schedule is similar with the races themselves being 500m rather than 250m. Check the schedule for details.
Saturday and Sunday May 20th & 21st.
Thompson Boathouse, Rock Creek National Park
2900 Virginia Avenue, Washington DC

Well I used to say something in my profile about not quite being a “tinker, tailor, soldier, or spy” but Tom stole that for our about us page, so I guess I’ll have to find another way to express that I am a man of many interests.
Hmm, guess I just did.
My tastes run the gamut from sophomoric to Shakespeare and in my “professional” life I’ve sold things, served beer, written software, and carried heavy objects… sometimes at the same place. It’s that range of loves and activities that makes it so easy for me to love DC – we’ve got it all.
