Our home away from home--we are in the townhouse on the end, the farthest on the left in this picture. Downstairs is a family room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, and patio. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and laundry. It has been so comfortable! We found it on vrbo.com. The kids love it and Hannah is planning on living here when she grows up, in this very house. She hopes they will save it for her. It is on I street, pretty close to everything. A circulator bus stop is right across the street, so that is how we got to the National Mall this morning.



Red rover red rover...


The National Archives Rotunda--we saw the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the Magna Carta. Amazing!


Pretty ceiling of the rotunda.

MaryJane, Your blog is beautiful (or rather, the family is the beautiful part!) Your comments on the pictures are everything every good blogger wants...interesting and pithy. You are hilarious! Good job!

Wow! Paul was in that very spot just nine days before you. On business. He loved seeing the documents.
