Jefferson Memorial

On Sunday, I had to drag Joshua out for our "walk" with Tucker.  Our goal in bringing him out here was to get him (1) lots of exercise, and (2) get him "cultured" (haha).  We decided to go to the one place that we haven't been at the Mall, the Jefferson Memorial.  We each took turns watching Tucker while the other went into the Memorial with Dresden.  It was interesting to learn about the kind of man Jefferson was.  One thing I had never known was that before writing the famous documents he is known for, he was one of the few lawyers who would represent slaves to sue for the right to freedom.  I also took a picture of another interesting tidbit to share with ya'll!
