{Meet Virginia...and Walkingaton DC}

Congress building, Where the inauguration was at.

Smithsonian Buildings

World War II Monument....I think only a few years old.

Beeeeutiful!

It was only 30ish out this day...My wonderful escort would drop me off so that I could go and see the sights and then drive me back around and pick me up...we had quite the system.. there was so much to see I didn't get to see it all, but I got a quick taste. I for sure want to go back for more....!! Maybe in May with Mark.

Inside The Lincoln Memorial. For sure my favorite monument. Words can't describe the reverence in there. Ok maybe something almost like the temple. I looked up and loved all of the stained glass windows and the pillars just went on forever.

Thomas Jefferson Memorial

This is the same shot that you see on tv, you really can't get that close, but since it was always oulined with trees, I imagined it to be kind of secluded. But it was right there by everything...I don't know it just was so amazing to me for some reason.

Inside the Smithsonian Building...I only got to go wee in one of these beautiful ancient buildings!!

This was such a gorgeous view.

I didn't get that great of a picture from the front because of the sun, but this too was really breathtaking.

I am so glad..this little man although kneeling, puts this monument into perspective. How grand and amazing!!

I loved the detail on the bow of this hairdo!

Masonic Temple across the Patomic River, which was mostly frozen ....

Now onto some of my pictures of things that I wish I could of brought home on the Plane with me.

I wanted these pillars so bad for my bedroom....Isn't that just dang cute!!

I really was dying at all of the gorgeous architectural detail everywhere. This little town was called Leesburg....I gotta go back!

This was just a fun night out with Juliette, Annie and her husband!! What a way random fun group! I love you Juliette and I love Virginia. Thanks for such a fun time!! You totally made the weekend a trip to always remember!
