I'm a seasoned Washingtonian, wife, and mother. I can't breathe without my family, and friends. I enjoy old romantic movies, music I'm and food. My favorite destination was with my husband to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, we celebrated my birthday and anniversary of 15 years. It is my pleasure to host your family as our guest while you stay in Washington DC and/or the surrounding area. My words of assurance in life; "In all things give thanks unto the Lord, for it is the well of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
Charming DC Gem is located in the older section of Fort Lincoln Condominium and Town Home Community of northeast Washington, DC. The community was constructed in the 1960s and 1970s. In 2011, space was added for a shopping center. The Fort Lincoln area includes a Civil War-era fort constructed in 1861 for the defense of Washington. The fort had a perimeter of 466 yards (426 m), and places for 34 guns, including one 100-pound Parrott rifle. The fort is within the adjacent Fort Lincoln Cemetery, and can be visited.
