Washington Monument



Last weekend I went up the Washington Monument. By law, it will always be the tallest building in the city (just over 555 ft). I appreciate that law because no matter where I am, I know where I am! Living in the grid system is great too. Cardinal directions are a cynch around here. As long as you remember your alphabet, you can get around in no time!










View to the north. Can you even see the tiny-tiny White House? (Hint: 12 o'clcok)







Looking to the west at the Lincoln Memorial.






South at the Potomic River.








East, across the Mall to the Capitol.
