DC, Park at New Carrollton and ride the Metro to the Smithsonian stop and spend the day at the Museums and people watch. Catch the Metro back. Easy Cheap day.

In a few weeks we might go to Crisfield for some soft crabs. This is also a good time to drive to the ocean before the crowds invade.

Not a favorite. But a little known place is that Air Mobility Command museum along Dover AFB. Its right along the runway so you can see planes coming and going. Good exhibits and you can actually get inside some of the planes on a weekday. One saturday a month they open up all the planes.

Been a few times to Great Falls (prefer the Virginia side). Antietam is a scenic drive.

George Washington's grist mill and distillery, just down the road from his Mt Vernon estate, is a reasonable ride and uniquely interesting. Also, the Udvar-Hazy Air & Space Museum near Dulles.

This weekend there's a wine festival in St Michaels. That's a fun day trip!

Thanks for the Air Mobility Command Museum rec. I took my 3 kids on Saturday and they had a blast. I'd never heard of it before, but they keep asking when we can go back.

Went there as well. The talk by Mr Shenkle was awesome! Hope you saw that.
Neat place.
