On the National Mall

Walking across the National Mall on the way from a meeting and to another meeting.  Looking down toward the Washington Monument.

The Smithsonian Museum.

The Capitol in the distance.

A bit closer to the Capitol.  This is where laws are passed.

Smithsonian Museum of Natural History

I had some business in DC to attend to which gave me a brief opportunity to pass through the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History.  This T-Rex is waiting for visitors.

The elephant in the middle of the big atrium.

The Hope Diamond.  I don’t understand what all the hype is about.

Martha, the very last passenger pigeon.
