These United States of America

We recently went downtown and looked at some touristy sites. After experiencing DC on a sunny Saturday afternoon I have observed two important things. 1) Apparently rollerblading is still a thing 2) Segways have a home in the District of Colombia. DC is THE place for Segway riders and rollerbladers of all shapes, of all sizes, and of all lifestyles no matter how alternative.

Here are a few pics from the big event:

There are two things you should know about Wesley's love/hate relationship with Abraham Lincoln. 1) He really doesn't like how historical revisionists have nearly deified a man who tried to wage war in an effort to exert federal dominance over the authority of the individual states. 2) He thinks is beard is hilarious.



Mamma knows her boy's gonna rattle some cages one day up in that capitol building.



Lindsey at the north portico, looking stylish as always. You can't see me in this pic because I'm behind the camera. But I'm screaming at Barack Obama so loud. I can't remember what I was screaming about. It was pretty cold out for being so deceptively sunny. Maybe that was it.


WWII memorial.



We'll go back downtown again probably for the cherry blossom festival. In the meantime it's still freezing cold. It even snowed yesterday. Barack Obama is certainly going to hear from me about that.
