Washington D.C. – U.S. Capitol Visit Pictures

This week I am spending a few days touring Washington D.C. I know it is not Disney but I thought some may be interested so here are some cell-phone pictures from my trip.  To see all of my posts visit my 2017 Washington D.C. Summary Page.

Today I started off at the U.S. Capitol.
