Weekend Trip to Washington, D.C.

This past weekend we took a trip to D.C. for my pa-in-law’s birthday. Great weather, but we missed the cherry blossoms by a week or two. Below is a sampling of photos from our trip. Eventually I will move these and more to my gallery. My favorite stop is the Air & Space museum. ¬†Here is a trifecta of aviation history: ¬†Spirit of St. Louis, Spaceship One, and the Bell X-1 Amelia Earhart’s Lockheed Vega. ¬†She set several flight milestones in this plane.
