Another day, another state

It was overwhelming to come off the bike trail and onto the Washington Mall.





Peter took my picture and we dodged 8th graders on their school trips.   We visited the Vietnam memorial and got a chili dog from a street vendor.  Peter was bragging about me to anyone who stood still next to us long enough to make eye contact.

We watched the sunset over the park and drove off to our campsite.  It was glorious.

We took Wednesday off to go to the National Art Gallery and saw a very moving Portrait Gallery exhibit on soldiers in the war on terror.

I rode yesterday 60 miles from the Lincoln Memorial, through Rock Creek Park and into the bowels of Maryland.  It was hilly.

  1. It must have been incredible to see the Washington Monument rising before you as you rode your BIKE! That's cool.
