National Mall

     Today my goal (lofty as it may be) was to cover the National Mall. First stop, Washington Memorial - CLOSED for repair from the earthquake. Really. STILL. Ok, so much for that one. Next the WWII Memorial, the Reflecting pool and the Lincoln Memorial. Next to Arlington, the pool and Lincoln gave me chills. When I thought about how I was standing and looking upon the same things as all those who attended the March on Washington. What they had gone through before, during and after was simply chilling.
     I guess I must have been overwhelmed because I actually almost left without seeing the MLK Memorial! Totally impressed and sooooooooooo thankful I didn't forget. Oh and awe...
