Washington DC Visit update

Dear students,

I just wanted to follow up with some of your suggestions that you gave to me after we went on that virtual tour about Lewis and Clark. I haven't been able to go take a tour of the White House since those are no longer allowed. I have visited a bunch of art galleries.  On Saturday, Cody and I visited the Air & Space Museum and the American History Museum. I've posted some pictures below from our wanderings. Hope you're all having a great summer and make sure you're still reading!
