When you're traveling, you are what you are right there and then.
People don't have your past to hold against you.
No yesterdays on the road.

| Hello, Mr. Lincoln |
June, 2018: I'm so excited! I finally visit our nation's capitol.
All the history, the architecture, the food ...
and of course all the interesting people.
In the spirit of the Fourth of July,
here are a few photos of my 'quick trip' to the capitol of the USA.
Most of you have probably been here.
For me, it was special because I'm an
American who loves my country.
No crazy politics on this blog.
I'm amazed how so many people are
absolutely crazed out on their Facebook,
blogs, and all other means of communication.
Not much love to be found in certain circles.
The hate is so evident.
Why don't y'all take some deep breaths
and instead of pounding the President,
take a few moments and pray for him.
I'm just thankful to be surrounded by
beautiful fellow Americans who love and appreciate their country
and who pray for those in office.
Now, on with the show ...

| The Washington Monument. This was a touching moment for me. Also makes me recall my friend Forest Gump. |
 |
| Oh, the books! Library of Congress, the oldest federal cultural institution in the United States. |
 |
| Oh, the books! And look! The 'free book table' |
 |
| Strolling down the avenue, reading my 'free' book... ...beats talking on my cell phone! |
 |
| Love the architecture of the Library of Congress |
 |
| The Senate Building |

| Me and my new friend Jenna in front of The White House |

| Rob bought me a hat and a painting here for our 30th wedding anniversary! |

| The Hat Lady who makes awesome hats! The Capitol Hill Flea Market |
There's so much to see. So little time.
I'll have more photos another time.

Until then, I'll keep on writing and wishing you oceans of kindness.
We grow like a flower in the field.
After the wind blows, the flower is gone, and there is no sign of where it was.
But the Lord's love ... continues forever and ever.
Psalm 103:15-17
