Anyone live near Washington DC?

Anyone live near Washington DC?
We’re flying out May 24 and returning on the 29th. So a short stay. We’re staying with friends and plan to do a lot with them. But I hope to take one day to visit gardens near Philly. We’re going to the Smithsonian museum on the African diaspora since a former student of Lia’s can get us in and will see a show Lia has work in. But I can sneak off at some point to get coffee or a beer. I can’t remember if anyone lives near there.

I used to live in the suburbs of DC in Va, but that was a very long time ago.

No where near, but I can give you some advice.  When you get to Washington, DC, find your way to a well known coffee shop called 'Tryst'.  At the first table to the left of the front door will be seated a red-haired man wearing a blue overcoat.  Go up to him and say, 'The oyster owns a fine wristwatch.' 

Follow his instructions exactly.

I wouldn't do that, just ask spies who live in Britain.

I know of two off the top of my head. Waiting to see if they poke their heads up.

Speaking of spy exchanges, name this comedy movie this line came from.

Spies meet in dark ally.

Spy 1 "Who do you favor in the Virginia Slims Tennis Tournament?"

Spy 2 response, "In the Virginia Slims Tennis Tournament I always root against the heterosexual."

(Come on guys, free year's supply of pocket lint at stake.)

'Top Secret'.  Horrible piece of crap.

But, I'll take the pocket lint all the same...

Me too.  I was in Prince Georges county, Maryland during part of middle school and my first year of high school.  Found out what a snow day was.

I don't live near DC but I live near Berkeley. Smile
Seriously, I'm about due for a trip to the Bay Area soon - I'll PM you about swinging by for a visit.
