Today we spent most of our time at the Farm Bureau buildings in meetings and then we went to the State Capital (I know bad picture of the capital we will get a better one tomorrow when it is not raining) Where we got a tour of the Capital. We then talked with Representative Bishop.

To get to some of the places we go we ride the Metro which is like a train that runs under the ground. Its kind of fun and very entertaining

Hope you guys are being good tomorrow I get to come home and I am very excited to see all of you

Sorry you are tired granny but i do appreciate you and Papa taking the kids.

The castle was a monument on top of a hill called round top to show that part of the war was fought there. It made a great look out put for the war.

Yes that was a Cannon used in the War they could shoot a mile away. It took 6 horses to pull them around.

This was our plane we flew on I was really nervous. Taking off wasn't so bad and the flight was kind of long, but the landing was really bumpy because the wind was blowing in Washington. Mom handled the landing better than dad he was squeezing his eyes shut and griping the arm rests.
