The Monument

2005-09-01-018.jpg

If there is any one image that symbolizes the Federal City it is The Monument. The memorial to George Washington, the “Father of the United States”.

From what I have read of him, the humble giant who led our nation to independence would have been teribly embarased - but we like it.

    Washington would be embarrassed that we went to all that trouble and expense to build a monument to him. But, it is a great symbol for D.C. Great shot too.
