Subject: So, we're in Union Station in DC

and we're there SUPER early in the morning (think 6 am) so nothing is really open yet. Scott (my DH) and I are wandering around and he points out these cool Roman guard statues that line the main terminal area. A few minutes later I find a sign thing talking about them, about how they were originally done as full nudes, and shields were added later as modesty panels. So, I wonder out loud if I stand to the side if I can see behind the shield...which I discover after freaking a few security bpeople out by moving at wierd angles around the room, that YEP! You CAN see behind those modesty shields. Scott took a photo. But, not for me, for LEIHA! LMAO!
So, yeah, Leiha, I have a photo for you, we'll have to plan a dinner again soon. LOL

[> [> We had a great time in DC. Even though it was HOT. I'm not used to that type of heat. LOL. I decided Scott isn't allowed to have control of the camera anymore for site seeing trips, we have hundreds of photos of things from the bus tour we took...and that's about it. *rolling my eyes* But we had a great time. Tuesday we went through the White House and went to the Museum of Nat'l History, then Thursday it was just me & Scott so we did the Hop on Hop off bus tour and hit the Air & Space museum, Spy museum, Crime & Punishment museum, the Hard Rock for lunch...it was a BLAST! DC is a magical place. And I'm not just saying that because of the nudie statues & the Marines doing PT (oo RAH! Scott wouldn't take a pic of them for me) but the whole city is so cool. My unexpected fav is the National Cathedral. SO beautiful. -- Ronlyn, Sunday, June 28, 01:09:11pm

[> Hey Ronlyn, I didn't know you would be here! I had some family in and just last week we all met at Union Station for dinner....I was also amazed at the statues but never thought to look under. LOL -- Robin, Sunday, June 28, 03:45:27pm

[> [> Yeah, we went to visit ILs, who live in Spotsylvania, VA. The trip went much better than I was expecting it to, so that was good. But they resented us trying to see anyone else while we were there, so I didn't get to visit anyone out there really. Next time.... -- Ronlyn, Sunday, June 28, 05:45:08pm

[> I grew up 10 minutes (give or take) from DC. Now I wish I had taken a nice beach chair and a cooler to the Mall to watch the eye candy run by... -- Gabmar, Monday, June 29, 10:57:27am

[> [> *rotfl* Yeah, ask Nanner about almost decapitating herself leaning out of the trolly and being so busy watching the Marines (or mid-shipmen, I can't remember which) go running on the mall that she forgot to watch for the rapidally approaching iron lamppost. Luckily, another RBL saw it for her and yanked her back inside the trolly. -- AnnAnn, Monday, June 29, 05:35:07pm
