The wifey and I are planning to visit around mid September. I've never been so I'm really looking forward to the trip.

I'm kinda of a ghost-hunter fan and I try to hit all the known local "haunted" spots around my area. Is there anything like that in DC that you know of? I've read of the Octagon House and some others that are downtown. Any spook places that give regular tours?

We'll just be in town for about 3 days. We plan to hit Ford's Theater, National Archives, Museum of American History, the Holocaust Museum, and a few other spots. Trying to not bite off more than we can chew.

We'll be staying downtown pretty close to the Smithsonian buildings, so we should be within walking distance to a lot of stuff.
