Judging by the way this thread is going, for every one that made it to DC, there’s a dozen sitting home after work, watching and wishing they could be there in more than spirit.

Actually, I was there Thursday and said my prayers before having to come home only because of necessary obligations yesterday and this morning.

We did make a few historical stops on our trip such as Harper's Ferry and Appomattox. I was thought about all of those who gave their lives over divided idealism in our country. We are again fragmented and the troops are preparing.

As we also visited Monticello, I couldn't help but wonder what TJ would think and say today.

JMHO, Mister Jefferson would probably be carrying a sign down Pennsylvania Avenue right now.
