Annapolis is only an hour's drive from the U.S. capital of Washington, D.C. Kathleen, Deirdre, the five oldest kids, and I spent a day in D.C. seeing a few sights. We toured the U.S. Capitol Building, then walked to the Washington Monument and the White House.You can see us enjoying a picnic lunch on the mall. We also saw a forty year old Caterpillar motor grader parked on the mall. These Cat products live forever ! Also, we have Joseph posing with his cousin/buddy Brennan in front of the White House.
The walk from the Capitol to the Washington Monument was a bit far plus the weather was pretty hot. I had the ambition to also see the Lincoln Monument since our family hails from the Land of Lincoln. As you can see, however, in the last photograph - the kids had no energy for the remaining half mile walk to Lincoln (in the background).
