Need a Loo?
Go to Washington, DC
Yesterday, we drove about seven miles up to Washington, DC just to see the preparations going on for Tuesday's inauguration.
These are just some
snaps taken in such cold weather that Geordie was anxious to get back to the car!
Anyway, just know that some of you will be seeing on your TV on Tuesday some activities taking place from this area of Washington and so thought you'd like to see the prep work.
Here we are on our way:
Sign on the Highway
