DC Field Trip

 Today, the hottest day on record, we decided to go to DC and see the monuments and the Smithsonian. 

We rode the metro, which is always part of the fun :)
 Then went to the Smithsonian Castle and the Natural History Museum. We didn't get to see it all, of course, but saw a few wings before heading out to the monuments.
 We lost a few of our party at the WW II memorial, they found a shady tree and decided to wait.  Lu, E, M and I forged ahead to the Lincoln memorial, which is my favorite and a must see.
We took some pictures, sweated a lot and then headed home.  On the way home we stopped for frozen yogurt. 

It was fun, in a historic and hot kind of way.
