Easter 2009

I was fortunate to be able to travel with Travis' Senior class to Washington D.C. over Easter weekend of 2009. Having never been, I was very much looking forward to visiting our nation's capital. Thank goodness we were lead by Mr. and Mrs. Rawls who had been for the past 16 years with other classes...they carved the path that took us to some breath-taking locations and allowed our adventure to be rather flawless.

Easter Sunrise Service would have to be my favorite...the cold air in my lungs, sounds of birds, jets, praise and worship songs, finally the warm kiss of the sun on my face...all part of God's great creation!

Mt. Vernon (George Washington's home) was a place I could have spent much more time...overlooking the Potomac River, checking out every plant and tree in gardens and orchard...just the thought of walking on the grounds and in the home where HE was. WOW!

The museums were fantastic...need a day for each!

Monuments and buildings are soooo much bigger than I expected.

This is just a small taste of what we experience...hope you enjoy.
