I'm beginning to plan one of our regular visits to our in-laws in Washington, D.C. in late winter. Wait, that's not as bad as it sounds. My in-laws are wonderful, generous, welcoming people, and I look forward to the trip. But I'd also look forward to a day spent on unfamiliar rails. We live in Denver, too far from DC to make the journey there very practical on a limited, working family's schedule. A day's out-and-back excursion from the DC hub seems a lot more workable. I have no idea what I want to see-- the Potomac valley, or the high-speed corridor, or what? I don't even know if I'll carry out my plan. But I'd be interested in seeing what you all might suggest. About the only essential would be a returning connection so I'm back within the day, without needing overnight accommodations. All ideas will be cheerfully accepted, if not taken.
