Of course, the biggest deal was a new President was sworn into office 2 days before we arrived. The town was a' buzzin.'
So, the night after the March for Life ... I hit the streets with my awesome tour guides, Lovely Kristine and Handsome Heath.
This was the ONE time I wish I had my pro camera with me. I was using the awesome point and shoot Erik gave me for Christmas. I loved the shadows and the light in comparison with the row of flags. :)
We were going up the steps to the Lincoln Monument ... my first glimpse of Abe:
Kristine and Heath in the big area!
Me w/ Abe! All bundled up, plus 30 pounds of clothes to keep me WARM during our walk.
And here was my most favorite part of the interior. It gave me a giggle. Marble turf? :)
We walked around the entire exerior.
And the cold was worth the reward of an awesome view of the monuments!

Love the night photos. Reminds me of when we went for college journo convention and walked the Mall at 2 a.m. Awesome view from the Capitol, and the Vietnam Wall was so quiet and peaceful with few people and the mementos left behind. It was kind of a shock when we went there the next day and there were tons of people with a wide range of emotions.
