I think we will skip Georgetown (and save it for another extended trip). I also appreciate the DC circulator tip and I think we will use it to save some time. If all goes well I want to add on the Ford Theatre and house (where Lincoln died) which looks to be across the street from the Theatre. I have propbably taken on too much but we are game to try and do it in warp speed. Thanks again....think rain free!
Ford's Theatre is right across the street from the Petersen House. With the added bonus that both are next door to the DC Hard Rock Cafe (which may only interest me).

Ford's Theatre can't be more than 1/2 mile from the Archives.

Good luck with the weather.
