My D.C bucket list

I've lived in the Washington area for 6 years. Sadly, I haven’t explored nearly as much as I should have. There is so much to see, so many places to go and more experiences I need to have to get to know the city. I've complied a list of over 100 things I want to do in Washington, DC. Now some places I've already gone to, but want to experience again. Fortunately, I have visited some places on my list that are currently closed. Like any city the business landscape changes and with that the culture changes too. I hope to complete my list in three years. I know that this is an ambitious task. I’m a full time graphic designer and a part time homebody, but I know this challenge will get me out and feeling like a real Washingtonian.
