Congressional Cemetery

This is a peaceful area. Congressional has worked with the community for years & years, extending themselves as more than just a rest home for the beloved departed. I have heard (but not attended ud83dude14) that there are many events for the living; spanning from film viewings to book readings. It is a quiet place for walking & a unique meet up for dog walks. There are many benches for relaxing & a few tables as well. There is lots of local history located at this cemetery. The grounds are simple but mostly well kept.

For those of you who enjoy history, this place is really worth your time. This cemetery predates Arlington going back to the earliest days of Washington. It offers a wonderful program that allows dogs off the leash.

Really cool spot, some VERY notable residents.

Boring

I may have to go back. I feel I missed many hidden graves. Due to a extremely hot day and it was a little after noon it was not a good time to visit. I was surprised by the many gay headstones. It's nice to see the love cannot be broken in death. It's nice to be able to research those who have gone on from this earth.
