Epic, I'm definitely around but I'm so sick right now I can't see beyond my pillow. I will keep up here though and jump in where I can.
Two recommendations for tour-stuff.
[link] does great tours downtown. The one I took in October featured more standing than walking, but the guide was loads of fun and I learned stuff about the night of the Lincoln assassination I'd never heard in all my born days.
And [link] is a good deal that covers pretty much all the standard sites with a liberal on-off policy.
If you end up strolling the Mall and I'm not still sick, I'd be happy to join you during the day.

I, too, love the Washington Walks bonny linked to -- the guide was a great storyteller and we had fun when we did the ghost one when my niece was visiting.
HEY!
Face it, you live in the town that gave us the Little Old Lady
Why do you think she was driving so fast? To get to something.
Heh. I figured as much, but I couldn't resist an indignant "hey" anyway.
I haven't been following the thread, but has their been any planning for F2F 2008?
Not much. I was going to poke the thread about that again now that the holidays have passed. I'm concerned at this point that we won't be able to get decent rates.

Excellent. Everyone drive away so that I can enjoy my awesome city!
HEY!
Hee. As I pointed out, Maryland has one too.
And apparently it's about as cool as San Diego, TX.

Well, I hope you're feeling better soon just on general principle, but also because I'd love to meet you! Thanks so much for the tour recs, by the way. Since every tour website claims to be the neatest thing ever, personal recs will be a big help.
There is also a Pasadena Texas.
Epic, I was just teasing. Sorry if that didn't translate.

Call me SoCal tenderfoot, but is a walking tour a practical idea in January?

No, I got it. That's why you got a "Hee".
Now I'm suddenly concerned that someone from San Diego, TX will be indignant with me for badmouthing them. heh.

Maybe. The weather could be anything from freezing/snow to sunshine/60 degrees to rainy/cold. One of the nice things about those tours is that you don't have to sign up or pay up in advance -- you can just show up and pay the guide at the time of the tour.
