Washington, D.C., July 14:
Jeanne and I flew yesterday from Orlando to Washington, D.C., for the Sigma Delta Chi Awards banquet, which is tonight.
Today, we played tourist and climbed on a tour bus, the kind you can step off or step on at any of the stops around the city. Our primary goal was to visit the National Archives (we've already
visited most of the major D.C. museums). We got off the bus near the Smithsonian Natural History Museum and walked through the Smithsonian Sculpture Garden. While there, we stopped for lunch in the Pavilion Cafe and then walked on over to the Archives.
Only one problem: There was a flood on June 25, and the National Archives are closed.
Tomorrow, we're meeting my brother and his family for a trip to the International Spy Museum and then the National Gallery of Art.
