I found
this in the Air and Space Museum. There was an exhibit showing the
tools astronomers used to discover the expanding nature of the
universe. I couldn't get a good photo of the equipment that Henrietta Swan
Leavitt used to find the variable stars that proved to be the key
to Hubble connecting distance with speed (red shift).
If I put stickers on the bumper of my car, this would be one of them.

I saw several works by Kathe
Kollwitz at the Women in the Arts museum. This (The
Downtrodden) is one of several
powerful pieces she did on the Weaver Rebellion. I don't think I was
supposed ot photograph it, but I did anyway.

Left to
right: Brenda, Mary, Jennifer, and Bob. Sleepy all, we went for a
run Sunday morning. After taking the Metro to the last stop in
Arlington, we ran on the bike trails over to Roosevelt Island and the
Mall.

Here we
are at Union station looking for a place to eat breakfast. We fail
miserably.
Eventually (after returning to Arlington, showering and
checking out of the hotel) we had fabulous Mexican Food at Rio Grande
Cafe in Arlington.
