It’s Still Breathtaking

Okay, I have lived near the capital of the United States, Washington, DC, for my whole life. I rarely go into the city any more, preferring a quieter life in the suburbs.

Capitol

U.S. Capitol viewed from the Law Ride 13 May 2012

…. remains just as thrilling and breathtaking to me today as the first time I remember seeing it when I was just a tyke. My Mom brought me into her office, which was in this massive building, when I was four years old.

This past Sunday, I had the pleasure, once again, to join a police escorted motorcycle ride that goes past the Capitol Building. I’ll describe more about that experience in a day or two, once I get photos about the event posted.

Life is short: appreciate where you live!
