What's Happening Around the District
Ah, Washington: evergreens, coffee, rock, and rain. That’s pretty much it, right? Well, no. There is a whole lot of weird going on in our state. Washington is home to some of the weirdest travel destinations, scariest legends, and most colorful folks in the United States. Two authors traversed the state to document it all. Author Jeff Davis will visit three locations to talk about the book and his adventures.
