We took a tour of the Washington National Cathedral, which is walking distance from Evan's apartment. I'd been there once on the super-fail 8th grade class trip of 1996, but we didn't see very much then.
D.C. regulations restrict very tall buildings, which means that the tower of the Cathedral is one of the highest places in the city, so he recommended I get to see the view. It was just in time, too, because the next month the Virginia earthquake damaged the building and closed it for several months. The restoration might not be done for years.
Also I thiiiink I'm sitting under the Wisconsin flag.
I did this one last year for a photo class. The assignment was "unusual angle". I was laying on the floor looking up.
