WASHINGTON, D.C.


The back side (Rose Garden view) of the White House, well guarded... "Can we get any closer, Grandpa?"... "Well, yes we could, Joseph, but if you think traffic is rough here, Pennsylvania Avenue on the front side is even worse."... "OK, then maybe we should just keep driving. Oh yeah, Grandpa?"... "Yes?"... "Why are there so many people here on a Saturday?"

The Washington Monument as we drove by... sadly, we had a fairly long drive and more stops or we would have parked and wandered around much more.
