Perfect Timing

The last time I visited the National Archives we stood in line for what seemed like hours and were herded through like sheep, with signs telling us how long we could spend looking at the historic documents. This morning was so different. Very magical. No lines, no one shouting directions. You could spend all the time you want, DG even read Article II to find the oath of office that Robert's bumbled on January 20th. Wonderful!

  2. Is that why they seem to have taken refuge in the nest?

  4. This is such a free country that we have signs telling us how long we can LOOK AT SOMETHING?
