Trip to D.C.

After a few days respite to unpack my bags it was time for a trip to my sister's house in D.C. This lion is in a park honoring fallen police officers.

I love this carving on the front of the Building Museum nearby. My sister's office is in a Courthouse right around the corner.

My first stop was the Dragon Display at the Textile Museum. I couldn't resist snapping a photo of these molas.

Of course I had go take photos on the Mall.
