Wouldn't this make a great painting?!
My cousin and her friend were in town on their spring break so we did the monument walk yesterday. Don't believe I have ever walked right up to the base of the Washington Monument before. Being this close and looking up causes a slight unbalance in your sense of direction, that's for sure! Being touristy is great exercise, too and it is always amazing to see the monuments, even though I live less than 10 miles away...
P.S. The "chili with chocolate" was yummy, although no major distinguishable chocolate flavor!
