A Tourist In My Own Town

Earlier this month a friend came to visit, and I got to be a tourist in my own town. First, we went to the zoo. No pictures there, I always take too many when I go, so I didn't even take my camera. But the next day we headed to the Capitol Visitors Center. I hadn't been yet. No photos allowed inside the museum part, so here are some of the outside.

Cool clouds:
Archives Building across the street:
Supreme Court next door:
Capitol from an angle you don't usually see:
Pretty sunset that day:

I don't know why, but I thought this sign was funny:
General Meade...I saw his grave in Philly just a few weeks earlier:
Newspapers outside the Newseum:
Most papers had the wikileaks on the cover...but the good ole Phoenix paper had Cyber Monday as its heading:
Of course nothing tops off a visit to DC other than vegan cupcakes from Sticky Fingers:
Mmmm, gotta go...need to make another run to Sticky Fingers!
