“I've found NACA's mortgage program to be exceptionally thorough and straightforward, making it the best option available for those seeking down payment assistance, covering closing costs, and avoiding PMI. While the process may seem daunting at first glance, the benefits it offers make it entirely worthwhile.Throughout my journey with NACA, I've encountered a few counselors, each of whom has provided invaluable insights and guidance. They've been instrumental in navigating me through every step of the process, readily addressing any questions or concerns that have arisen. Thanks to the clarity and support provided by NACA, I'm eagerly anticipating the realization of owning my very first home in the near future.”

“Nestled within the 446-acre grounds of the United States National Arboretum lies a true hidden gem - the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum. This serene and meticulously curated outdoor exhibit showcases an extraordinary collection of miniature trees, known as bonsai and penjing, that have been painstakingly cultivated and cared for over decades.As you approach the museum's entrance, a sense of peaceful tranquility immediately envelops you. The beautifully landscaped pathways lead you through a series of distinct gardens, each highlighting different styles and traditions of this captivating horticultural art form.The Bonsai Museum's centerpiece is the Bonsai Pavilion, an elegant, traditional Japanese-style structure that houses some of the most extraordinary bonsai specimens in the world. Each tree, carefully selected and maintained by a team of skilled horticulturists, tells a story of patience, precision, and a deep reverence for nature.Wandering through the pavilion, you'll be struck by the remarkable diversity of the bonsai collection, which spans centuries and encompasses a wide range of species – from towering pine trees to delicate Japanese maples, each sculpted into intricate, miniaturized masterpieces. The subtle nuances in the trunk shapes, branch structures, and foliage patterns are a testament to the incredible skill and artistry of the bonsai masters who have cultivated them.Beyond the Bonsai Pavilion, the museum's grounds also feature the Penjing Museum, which showcases the equally captivating art of penjing – the Chinese counterpart to Japanese bonsai. Here, you'll discover a world of imaginative landscapes and whimsical interpretations of nature, where small trees, rocks, and other natural elements are artfully combined to create serene yet dynamic compositions.Throughout the museum, informative signage and thoughtfully designed exhibits provide visitors with a deeper understanding of the history, techniques, and cultural significance of these living works of art. Guided tours and educational programs offer even more insights into the intricate practices and philosophies that underpin the art of bonsai and penjing.Whether you're a seasoned horticulturist, a student of Japanese or Chinese culture, or simply someone in search of a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of the city, the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum is a truly remarkable destination. It's a place where the natural world and human artistry converge, inviting visitors to slow down, appreciate the beauty of the miniature, and connect with the timeless rhythms of the natural world.”

“Tucked away in a charming neighborhood, Meridian House feels like a secret garden oasis. The historic mansion itself is a photographer's dream, boasting elegant interiors with rich details that transport you to another era. But the real showstopper is the expansive garden. Lush greenery, meticulously maintained landscaping, and a variety of charming nooks and crannies create a backdrop that's both versatile and breathtaking. My couple and I were spoilt for choice when it came to finding picture-perfect spots!

This engagement session at Meridian House has only solidified my love for this venue. The atmosphere, combined with the professional and friendly staff, makes it an ideal location for any couple seeking an iconic engagement session location. IG @daniellerealphotography”

“It's very welcoming and clean. The boys met other children at "the house" who traveled here for their own medical journeys. They got to bond with other kids. It really does brighten parents up when you see the outlook of our children playing and talking about life. Changes my perspective as a human being.”

“Earlier this year I donated a car to Wheels For Wishes. This is the second car I have given to them. I have a son who had a life threatening illness as a child. He was not expected to live past about 6 or 7 years old. He received a Wish from the Make A Wish Foundation and the whole family got a trip to Disney World, Sea World, and Universal Studios. That was more than 30 years ago. Miraculously, my son is still alive today. But because of this, I try to support Make-A-Wish when I can. The process of donating a car is easy and fast. They send a flat bed automotive transport truck to pick it up and haul it away at no cost to me. I was glad I could contribute to this great cause.”

“The director of DCNE, Schuyler, is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and very easy to talk to. After speaking with him, my understanding of ADHD and neurofeedback has significantly broadened. They even offer a FREE consultation, what a wonderful gift to the DC community! It's hard to believe a complimentary service has received a low rating review! If you're seeking expert therapy, ADHD support, or neurofeedback guidance, I wholeheartedly recommend DCNE. You will walk away a much happier person!”

“This place really is quite nice during the off-season summer months. Today I counted a total of six students sitting down and either working or studying. That is a far cry from just a few months, when it was literally impossible to find a place to sit. Even though the official graduation starts tomorrow, I think that perhaps most of the students have already left. I like to come here on occasion to study and work, and the WIFI and nice tables make it conducive to do just that! I know that they have limited hours during the summer months, but I am still looking forward to being very productive here. I'm also glad that they have finally turned down the volume on the televisions that are situated in various spots, because not everyone comes to the center to just kick back and watch TV.”

“Today was my first time here. If you never been here before or familiar with the area like me, expecting it's like at a strip mall or something like that. NOPE! This is inside looking like an office building. There's a public parking deck that you can get parking validated.Very nice, friendly, patience and helpful staffs. Well organize display. Easy to find what you need and browse. If you know exactly what you need, you can call ahead to have your order prepped too or ship to you with reasonable shipping fee. Love that they set time aside to do that for you especially when you are crunch in time, thank you.”
