DC...Finally!

So...(just kidding, mom)

I finally made it to Washington D.C., a place I have been wanting to see more than any other for a long time now.  I only got to spend a few hours in the nation's capital, but I saw a lot of the monuments I wanted to see, and I plan on coming back soon!  Highlight: I saw Hillary Clinton Walking outside the White House!

On to the pictures!

The Washington Monument


Back of the White House (note the snipers on the roof)


The front of the White House



Lincoln Memorial


The reflecting pool, WWII memorial, and National Monument



FBI building


Capitol building


I also went to Baltimore today, here are some pictures

Camden Yards, where the Baltimore Orioles play


The first cathedral in America


I don't know what this is, but I thought it looked cool


M&T bank stadium, where the Baltimore Ravens play



My hotel room in Frederick Maryland



Crazy day, but it's kind of nice every once and a while to travel on someone elses dime, you should try it sometime.  Otherwise I have just been flying like crazy, I am almost up to 1300 hours!  Life on the road is tough, but talking to everyone back home and elsewhere has been making life a little easier, thanks for the support guys!  Congrats to Greg on the recent engagement!!  I have to start planning the bachelor party...
