Day Thirty-One: Washington D.C.

So after a misunderstanding we made it on the tour bus. The tour didn't really start till 9:45am because the first bus had no air conditioning.

We drove around to a boat load of monuments. These are the ones we were able to get out and take pictures in front of.

David Hutchings was my Third Cousin his name is on this wall. It might seem like just a name but to me it shows courage, bravery, a real man. People don`t fight wars to die for nothing they fight to make a difference. All these names on this Wall along with other walls are there as a reminder to my generation and those to come that our rights did not come free, that this world, our futures weren`t always as bright. Thank everyone of you that has served in making our future better.
