More Time at the Smithsonian Museums

Guest blogging by Sean from Washington DC..........
On Friday we hustled back to the Air and Space Museum to catch some exhibits we missed with the onslaught of school tours yesterday...... Wow! This place is cool!

The Museum of American History was down for renovations. Several items were on loan, being displayed at the Air and Space Museum. Among them were....






The top hat Abe Lincoln had at the Ford Theater the night he was killed.













Thomas Edison's Light Bulb










The scarecrow costume, original manuscript, and Judy Garland's red ruby slippers from the Wizard of Oz.








George Washington's Uniform










And Mr. Roger's Sweater!








PaPa again managed to convince Evan that the National Gallery of Art was a cool place to hang out. It didn't last long, but we did manage to see.....




RENOIR'S - "A girl with a Watering Can."














MONET'S - "The Japanese Footbridge."











VAN GOGH'S - "Flower Beds in Holland."



MANET'S - "The Railway."
