Now that I have a moment to work with the pictures, here is the final day in DC, plus the journey home. On Sunday (day 5) we saw the natural history museum; day 6 took us past Antietam National Battlefield. On to the pictures:
- What happened to Calvin?
- Bad day to be the prey...
- This is my distant cousin? Not the last time I would think it might be fun to tour this museum with Sarah Palin...
- Don't mess with the kitty...
- Here is another time I thought I would like to have Mrs. Palin around ... just to ask her if this was the dinosaur who ate her distant relative a few thousand years ago ... you know, when she thought
dinosaurs walked the earth. She was almost our Vice President. Wow.
- It's really impressive to see how big a T-Rex is in person.
- Here is the Hope Diamond
- Our view from the right field bleachers during Sunday's game. We were in the first row, right above the Nationals' bullpen. Great seats for all four games.
- Once the Cubs put 7 runs up in the 4th we saw an awful lot of action in the Nationals' pen, right under our feet.
- I think I'm going through President withdraw already
- Four games in four days: four wins. Bring out the brooms, because for once we actually took care of business
- A shot of the church at Antietam, behind which the Confederate ranks of Stonewall Jackson were positioned
- The sunken road at Antietam. A handful of Confederates held this line for quite some time, inflicting heavy casualties. They eventually fell back, but held at a later point when reinforcements arrived. All in all, Antietam was the bloodiest single day of the entire Civil War.
