Can you tell I took a lot of pics today?? The blog site only lets me post five at a time, hence the multiple posts.
The World War II Memorial moved me to tears. Tree Hugger says I must have lived another life during that war. I don't know about that, but I've always loved WWII history. They have giant triumphant arches facing each other with the water and fountains in the middle. One arch commemorates the war in Europe, the other commemorates the war in the Pacific. The Tennessee column is just one of 56, representing the states and territories of the US at that time. The gold stars pay tribute to those who served, living or dead. It just blew me away.
Isn't the pic of the Lincoln Memorial from the WWII Memorial just awesome? I may have to have it framed.
After the WWII thing, we walked,ever so slowly - 'cause we were dead tired at this point - to the subway station and rode "home" back to the good ole Motel 6. What a welcome sight THAT was.
We just ate at Boston Market and are now collapsed.
We had a really, really awesome day.
We see Monticello tomorrow and stay with my brother tomorrow night. Should be another awesome day.
More later!!
