National Harbor, Oxon Hill, Maryland, USA
A beautiful mixed-use development in Maryland, USA, along the Potomac River and near the Woodrow Wilson Bridge going to Virginia.
Spent the weekend at my daughter's condo unit right in the heart of the beautiful new town!
Featuring my guitar cover of Florante's Pinay (slang term for Filipina). Watch my Pisa, Italy Part 2 video for the full instrumental version!
Woodrow Wilson Bridge
The Woodrow Wilson Memorial Bridge aka Wilson Bridge is a movable bridge that spans the Potomac River between the independent city of Alexandria, Virginia, and Oxon Hill in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States.
The bridge is one of only a handful of drawbridges in the U.S. Interstate Highway System.
The Wilson Bridge carries Interstate 95 (I-95) and I-495 (the Capital Beltway). This video provides a view driving in the direction of I-95 North

The Woodrow Wilson Memorial Bridge (also known as the Woodrow Wilson Bridge or the Wilson Bridge) is a bascule bridge that spans the Potomac River between the independent city of Alexandria, Virginia, and Oxon Hill in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. The bridge is one of only a handful of drawbridges in the U.S. Interstate Highway System. It contained the only portion of the Interstate system owned and operated by the federal government, but was turned over to the Virginia and Maryland departments of transportation upon project completion
Driving Across The Woodrow Wilson Bridge - Washington Beltway
The Woodrow Wilson Memorial Bridge (also known as the Woodrow Wilson Bridge or the Wilson Bridge) is a bascule bridge that spans the Potomac River between the independent city of Alexandria, Virginia, and Oxon Hill in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. The bridge is one of only a handful of drawbridges in the U.S. Interstate Highway System. It contained the only portion of the Interstate system owned and operated by the federal government, but was turned over to the Virginia and Maryland departments of transportation upon project completion.[1]
The Wilson Bridge carries Interstate 95 and Interstate 495 (the Capital Beltway). The drawbridge on the original span opened approximately 260 times a year, causing frequent disruption to traffic on the bridge, which carried approximately 250,000 cars each day.[2] The new, higher span requires fewer openings.
The bridge's west abutment is in Virginia, a small portion is in Washington, D.C., and the remaining majority of it is within Maryland (because that section of the Potomac River is within Maryland's borders). About 300 feet (90 m) of the western mid-span portion of the bridge crosses the tip of the southernmost corner of the District of Columbia. Therefore, the bridge is the only bridge in the United States that crosses the borders of three jurisdictions. The section in Washington, D.C. is also the shortest segment of Interstate Highway between state lines.[3]
The bridge is named in honor of the 28th President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924), who, when elected in 1912, was serving as the Governor of New Jersey, but who was a native of Staunton, Virginia. While he was President, Wilson reportedly spent an average of two hours a day riding in his automobile to relax or to loosen his mind from the problems before him. President Wilson was an advocate of automobile and highway improvements in the United States. In 1916 he stated My interest in good roads is...to bind communities together and open their intercourse, so that it will flow with absolute freedom and facility.
Walking the Wilson Memorial Bridge
Something I've always wanted to do...walk the 2 mile Wilson Bridge. I was excited that my friend Zsean joined me. I know, I'm simple and yes, it doesn't take much for me. But the weather was lovely and it was the perfect day for me to do it because I didn't have any performances. Yay!

Teen dies after fight outside middle school
A 13-year old girl from Attucks Middle School ended up on life support at Texas Children's Hospital two days after a fight off campus.
Kashala Francis' mother, Mamie Jackson, says her daughter told her she was attacked by two girls after school on Thursday, and that another girl later jumped in and kicked her in the head.
Jackson says when her daughter returned home Thursday afternoon, she had a bruise on her face, but insisted she was okay.
