Larry Memmott's Blog

I’ll get to some of the places I like in Washington, itself, eventually, but for someone like me, someone from the open spaces out west, the most important thing to know when you live in a city like Washington is how (and to where) you can escape.  My favorite escapes from Washington are Dolly Sods Wilderness Area, Flag Ponds Nature Park, and, if you have more time, Assateague Island National Seashore, so I’ll pick up the blog by writing about each of them.
