Anyway, I went to a museum for a few hours and then started walking around cause it was a cool day, and just too nice not to ignore the weather. And I found myself wandering towards the Capitol.
Beautiful. There is a large pool in front of the Capitol and I saw there for about 30 minutes, just taking in the sights and enjoying the lovely weather.
There's my feet...
There's the Capitol....
There's a duck...
And there's one of the ginormous pigeons that I am convinced are going to fly off with a small child one day because she's holding a pretzel...
Then I decided to walk up to the Capitol and enjoy the architecture
A very fancy drinking fountain
I love the trees around here.
A nice archway to walk through to get to the grounds...
...If you're a squirrel...
Was potentially breaking the law....because I was standing when I took this photo.
Part of the Senate offices.
The backside of the Capitol
The Supreme Court Building...it's being cleaned and repaired right now.
Shakespeare Library behind the Capitol
I walked around a good deal and it was so delightful to be in that part of town. Everything is so dignified looking and I am excited to take long strolls down the tree lined streets during fall and enjoying the beautiful sights of this place.
