Capitol Hill Happenings

For those who do not live in the DC area and may not be coming to town for the events of next week, this is a picture taken yesterday, facing the west side of the Capitol.  The stand in the middle is the TV camera tower.  You might be able to see the podium where all the activity takes place.  Just to keep you aware of what's happening here these days.  Several have inquired as to my planned whereabouts on the 20th.  Well, I am blessed to have a ticket to the best seat one can possible get if not invited to be on the stage with the President:  in front of my TV set just two blocks away from the event.  I do hope to be able to get to East Capitol Street and a good place for taking pictures and Mr. and Mrs. Bush descend the stairs of the East Front of the Capitol to take the helicopter to Andrews Air Force Base and their return to Texas.
