This pizzeria in Georgetown has incredible pizza. We had a lamb sausage and fennel pizza that was made in the Italian tradition....thin crust and not stuffed to the gills with toppings. Awesome. Also, they had one of my all-time favorite beers: Dogfish Head Palo Santo! We toured the brewery in Delaware a couple of years ago and saw how they produce the beer. It is brewed in a 10,000 gallon cask made of Palo Santo wood from Paraguay. This wood is so dense it feels like a brick and sinks in water, like a rock. These are the largest wooden casks used for fermenting beer since prohibition. I wish that I could get this beer back in California. If I could drink only a few beers, this would be at or near the top of the list. If you haven't had this, you need to make the pilgrimage to the brewery and try some. It is as good as the finest wine.
We had this one for you, George.

Judy on "The Exorcist" steps. I don't remember there being any landings on the steps when I was there in the 70's. If someone owns a copy of the movie they may want to check it out and get back to me. This may be the light version.

This is something someone put on the "exorcist" steps in Georgetown

Our next home?????

Hello again! Today we visited the Library of Congress and the National Geographic Society headquarters. Unfortunately, there are no pictures as we were advised that, for the most part, photos are not allowed. So.....I have a few photos from our exploration of Georgetown the other day. Tomorrow morning we are off to Iquitos, Peru in the Amazon jungle. We will be arriving at dusk, take a boat down the Amazon river and then hike through the forrest to our lodge.
