Washington DC

We had a great time in DC. This was a family/work trip. Moe and I went to the maize meetings and Bev and Morley joined us to help with Adli. All and all a fun time. Here is a picture of Adli with FDR's dog. If you touch his ears it is suppose to bring good luck - Adli liked his feet
After numerous long and adventurous days - Adli would fall asleep with his reading light on (Can't really tell in this picture but the room is completely dark with just the little light). The yellow blanket is called his "Giggi"
We took Adli twice the the museum of natural history and he LOVED the dinosaurs
Oh and then Moe picked up this great necklace for me - Now what dress will I wear this with. Okay so if I had tried to take this home I would be in jail - I guess the hope diamond will have to stay at the museum :)
Also they let Adli hold a cockroach. I told the lady that she would have to put her hand to catch because there was NO way I could touch it - freaked me out! Adli thought it was sooooo cool and was very proud of himself.
We then went to the air and space museum and Adli was not sure if these were real or not. This was a fun trip, saw lots more than shown and even learned about cool science stuff. Just to give everyone a little dose of science "The corn genome is sequenced!"

I got to say that I am bummed that I missed the Maize Meeting and more importantly a chance to see my good friends Joe (short for Jen and Moe).

Looks like the trip was a lot of fun. Thanks for the phone call during your trip. I am surprised you restrained yourself to only one.

Later,
