The Divine Architect, Abraham Lincoln, and Evolution
The Lincoln Memorial
After visiting London, the capital of England and the UK, in January, I became curious about seeing my own country’s capital. I was blessed to be able to take a pilgrimage to Washington, DC for the week of my 39th birthday. I went with my husband and youngest daughter- it was our first time there.
On our initial venture out of the hotel, we strolled to try some gelato (delicious) and then kept walking until we reached the Washington Monument. From there, we looked in each direction, noting famous landmarks.
It had rained earlier, and the sky was very active, quickly changing.
When I took the photo above, I was under the impression it was the Supreme Court Building I was looking at.
When I took this photo (shown above), about 12 minutes later, I was still under the impression I was photographing the Supreme Court Building.
It was only that evening at the hotel room, while comparing a map of Washington DC with my photos, that I realized the building I had been gazing at over which the sky was performing so noticeably was the Lincoln Memorial.
