Washington DC Promotion and Reunion

My brother Jim and I went to Washington DC to witness the promotion of our good friend Rich to Lt Colonel at the Pentagon. The trip turned into an a amazing reunion and sight-seeing trip that I'll never forget. Here are a few of my favorite shots of our day walking around DC.

Thanks Caren for taking this shot of Jim and me

Taking a break in front of the Jefferson Memorial



Next we visited the Marine Corps Warm Memorial (a.k.a. Iwo Jima Memorial). I had no idea how large it was - so I made sure to include Doug and Jim in the shot for scale.





What a beautiful sight to see as the sun sets. It reminds me that I really am proud to be an American.


I don't know how else to put it. If you have never visited Washington DC, make it a point to go!
