Washington, DC: Even though I grew up in suburban Maryland and got to enjoy school field trips to the Smithsonian museums and the National Zoo, there’s always more to see. If I can visit this spring when the weather gets nice, I’ll make room for some outdoor activities. I’ll either bike the C&O Canal towpath or else rent a kayak and paddle the Potomac. —Spencer Carney, Managing Editor, Four Seasons Magazine
