D.C pt. 3

You have to have a photo of yourself on the stairs of the Lincoln Memorial. So here I am.




And here's Shelagh.



Part of the police force patrols via horseback. The horses are very tolerant of people wanting to pet them.


One of the newest monuments is dedicated to the Korean War. It's an incredible powerful monument and deserves a moment of dedicated reflection. How many people know anything about what we did and why? Does anyone realize that technically still at war?

DC, part 2

Looking toward the Washington Monument from the WWII memorial. With all the fountains and pools it's a very cool spot on a hot day.



I do get in front of a camera every now and then.

Shelagh and her favorite hat.

The Reflecting Pool looking toward the Lincoln Memorial.


Wow, I'm in front of the camera again.

The Lincoln Memorial. I admit it, I took the elevator instead of the stairs. Do you know how many stairs lead to the inside?

Inside the Memorial. Probably the most famous statute in the US.
