This time through we did not see everyone we
had hoped to see. Terry's knee bothered her enough to finally find
an urgent care facility to have it looked at. Medication, a brace,
and rest were prescribed, but it did not keep her totally down. Our
friend Nancy, who is handicapped and walks with a cane, managed to slow
Terry down a bit and having her along meant we could use the handicap
spaces at the monuments. Gerry did the walking and the
picture-taking. The ladies found the nearest bench and took their
time. Since we were here last, the World War II memorial has been
completed, a memorial to Franklin D. Roosevelt has been added, as well as
an Air Force Memorial next to the Navy Annex where Gerry worked for the 10
years we were stationed there.
One of Terry's nephews and her one and only
niece live in the area and we were able to spend a little time with them
both. They even made it out to the Family Campground at Andrews Air
Force Base to see our new home. We also made it up to Lindsey's new
digs on Capital Hill (with a view of the top of the Capitol). And we
got to meet Laura, the new lady in Steve's life.
