I rummaged through my huge file of photographs, and found this one from a trip to Washington DC early in the 2000's. Seems like an appropriate image for the day.

I missed being part of the festivities today in Washington, but watched on television. I must know about a dozen people who went, and have already heard their stories and seen some of their pictures via the internet. What an amazing day.
