Mr. Mike Goes to Washington

I recently made a trip out to our nation’s capital. It was not my first trip out there and it will probably not be my last. The reason this trip is special is because it was during Moustache March and my lip caterpillar was in full bloom.

There are a lot of cool things to see in D.C. and I was able to see a few of the more historically important items.

This is me in front of some weird piece of art. I'm not sure what drugs the artist was on when he did this, but my guess is all of them.

Here I am in front of the Capital building, and by in front I mean six blocks away.

Here I am in front of the Washington Monument, aka the Giant Rectangular Penis with a Sharp Tip Monument.

This is me in front of the Capital building again only closer this time, but also in front of a pond. I later tried to hunt for ducks in the pond and was rudely escorted away.

We then when to the National Air and Space Museum and guess what they have fricking missiles there! Here I am in front of one.

Here I am in front of another missile... I wanted to take one home so bad.

I'm sure there were other cool things in the museum, but all I wanted to see where the missiles.

Here I am again in front of the Capital building and again closer. I've found that you can't get too many pictures of yourself in front of the Capital building.

We then went to the Botanical Gardens. Let's just say going to a huge flower garden during Moustache March is not exactly what I had in mind.

I did learn a few things though. Like where sausages come from.

And where beefsteak comes from.

All and all is was a very successful trip despite the fact that I didn't score a missile. I guess there's always next time...

Thanks for sharing about your trip Mike. It was very informational. I had no idea where sausage and beefsteak came from. But now I do. I also liked the part about missiles. Why didn't they let you take one home? Seems like they had plenty to go around.
