I lived in DC during the last inauguration and it was awesome! I'll never forget how much fun it was-- a full week of excitement! The city was on fire!

And now... we get to do it all again! DC's Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration just announced that for eight nights, from January 14-22, bars in DC will stay open until 4am. This means more money for restaurants, cab drivers, and the city in general... and it means a good time for us! 

I'll definitely be heading to DC for some inauguration fun!
