Washington Monument

I have lived in this area for eight and a half years and I have never been up in the Washington Monument. So this was the day. It was a nice cold day, but clear. Mom, Julie and I took the stairs oh I mean the elevator up :). They had the stairs closed because of some flooding problems. My mom said the last time she went up was during the Vietnam War.
While you wait for the elevator to take you down they have this small museum area to learn more about the monument.
This is a view of the capitol from the Washington Monument.
