The Fergusons Turn Tourist

So, after a long hiatus of no blogging, I have decided to whet your appetites with what is to come. Over spring break, we went to Washington DC. Amy has always wanted to go back, she went with her family when she was younger, and I have never been. At first, as usual, my mind said, "NO! DC Sniper, axe to the head, crazy people," but the winning argument was, "Don't want to sleep on the couch, see famous stuff, food!" So, off we went with dreams of lots of good food and seeing great sites.

The following are pictures I took, of myself, with some of the more recognizable sites. I'll continue blogging the rest as I sit down at the computer with time on my hands.

THE WHITE HOUSE
Awesome Parts: Armed Guards with BFGs, Self-Tour, Beautiful Views
Drags: Tour got cancelled because we went on the day the health bill was signed















ARLINGTON
Awesome Parts: Purely Majestic, Awe-inspiring
Drags: Stupid, disprespectful kids














THE NATIONAL MONUMENT
Awesome Parts: Great View at Top
Drags: Can't take pictures at the top, Didn't take the stairs















THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL
Awesome Parts: THAT's FREAKIN ABE LINCOLN
Drags: Didn't come to life as Pinky and the Brain suggested
