A night, close up view of the Washington Monument!

Here is a blurry picture of the World War II Memorial. This new memorial is beautiful and the blurry lights are the monuments for each of the 50 states. Great new site to visit!

The FBI Building. This is where my parents met. My father was on his way to becoming an FBI Agent and my mom was in fingerprinting analysis. Then I came along and they moved from one Washington to another.

It's spring time in the district. The Cherry Blossom Festival was held over the last two weeks. Here is a pic of the blossoming flowers at the National Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.

The Washington Monument.

The Supreme Court. My great, great grandfather, Riley Andrews, on my mom's side of the family fought cases here as the District Attorney of Virginia.

This is a pic of the Washington Monument's reflection in the reflecting pond from our twilight tour.

The capitol building. Tina, James, and I ate breakfast with Senator Harry Reid and Senator John Ensign on Thursday morning in the capitol.

Our group met with Tim Magner, the newly appointed Director of Educational Technology for the US Department of Education.

Sam, Cheryl, Matt, Paul and I went on a twighlight tour of the war memorials and monuments. Here is a pic of the Lincoln Memorial.
