District of Columbia: Washington Monument Part 3

Here are some old/new pictures from my trip in 2013.  This is the Washington Monument.  While I was there it was closed so I wasn't able to go in it.  Hopefully this summer I will be able to go up this time.  As you can see it was really closed off that we couldn't get close to it.  It's amazing how tall it is.




Great view from the Lincoln Memorial
