We went to D.C.

The Boy has been learning about the monuments, and since he doesn’t remember living there we stayed in D.C. overnight after a youth baptism trip. The kids got to go to the zoo. Then we went to the NRA museum, The Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum, and drove through downtown. We got to visit with Herb and Jenna, which was Heath's favorite part, and keep in mind he loves going to the NRA museum. Heath chose to show his favorites guns of the trip, the Outlaw Josey Wales revolvers, and the gun Mal from Firefly used. The new NRA exhibit is all of the original Gatling guns, which is supposedly the largest Gatling exhibit in the world, or so they say. They have several more scattered through the museum, but above is one of each model.
The Boy wrote an amusing story about the trip when he got back to school. It hit all the highlights. Heath thought that it could use a translation copy to cover a few gaps The Boy explains in person, so he made a pdf document. I found a way to post it here.
