Tonight I’m heading down to D.C. so I can attend the White House Social Fall Garden Tour tomorrow!
(Which is a special Tweetup tour of the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden, Rose Garden, and the South Lawn, including the White House Kitchen Garden and beehive.)
How did I get to do this? I follow White House social media accounts on Twitter, and I applied through the White House Social website.
Needless to say, I’m really excited about seeing the grounds and being in a place that I have spent so much time imagining (particularly for fiction purposes).
I’ll be tweeting throughout the tour tomorrow, so if you’d like to follow along find me on Twitter (or check out the hashtag #WHGarden). The events start at 7:30 am EST, so look for WH tweets from me starting around that time. We are having a question and answer session with Administration officials around 10:00 am EST, so tweet me any questions you’d like to ask! Or leave them in the comments below.
That is SO COOL. Just stop teasing me with your awesome life, Rebecca 😉 Book deals, white house tours, what next………
So cool! Have fun! I of course want to know what Sasha and Malia are reading these days but I don’t know how closely the administration keeps tabs on that 🙂 They’ve picked out some good books in the past, though!
That sounds really fun! And perfect for your book research. Take lots of pics and enjoy!
@Rachel: It’s funny because I tried for months and months to get a tour through my congressperson, to no success. Who knew all it took was a couple of tweets to go on a WH garden tour?! 🙂
That’s so cool, Rebecca! I’m looking forward to reading your tweets. 🙂
I’m so envious! I will definitely be following along via Twitter. I hope to see lots of pictures too!
This sounds like a blast! I’ll be following on Twitter. Can you post any pictures?
Sounds like FUN!!! I hope you have (had) a blast!
