DC Day 6

On Day 6 we got a late start. We thought we would wake up around 8 on our own so we didn't set an alarm. We ended up not waking up until 10:30 and didn't get out until 11:30. So all we had time for was hanging out at Mt. Vernon all day in the rain. Yeah, the rain was a lot worse than the snow. I'd take snow any day. I paid 10 dollars for an umbrella that said Mt. Vernon on it. Stupid rain.


Collin, standing at the front gates to Mt. Vernon, in the rain.Me, standing on the front porch of Mt. Vernon, in the rain.The back of Mt. Vernon faces the Potomac River. That tree was supposedly there when George Washington lived there. There I am, standing in front of it, with the geese, in the stupid rain.We love this place. It's a chain, but I don't think we have them in Utah. We should. Potbelly, if you're listening, come to Utah.
In Potbellys there was this cool flag that had all the states listed with a little drawing of some old fat guy that had something to do with each state.Our state was represented by good old Brigham Young.On our way back to the hotel we stumbled across the FBI. It's closed to the public (but the Pentagon isn't?) so we just took a picture of the building where Mulder and Scully used to work.

It looks like you guys are having fun!
Maybe they're hiding the aliens in the FBI building, Area 51 is just to throw everyone off!
