Great list...Can you email me at historyiselementary@mail.com
I've misplaced your email and didn't find it anywhere. I wanted to send you the blogroll code in order to use the scrolling boxes.
Thank you for visiting my TT.
I really enjoyed your slide show and hope I get to visit the FDR Memorial in person one day. Thank you for sharing.
First, thanks for the information you left on my blog. You gave me some great suggestions.
Secondly, I just visited the D.C. area two weeks ago and stayed in Alexandria with some friends. The FDR memorial was our favorite as well. We must've taken 50 pictures of it as we walked through and thoroughly enjoyed it. Actually, we walked there twice during our week's stay.
By the way, how did you happen upon my site?
Thanks for visiting my TT!
I loved your list! It was both fun and informative! I have never visted Washington DC, but your list made me want to!
