George Washington Masonic Memorial - This magnificent building on a hill in Alexandria is privately funded through the contributions of Freemasons and others. It is one of the sites described in the Dan Brown book, The Lost Symbol. From the front steps you can see the Capitol Building and the Washington Monument.
We went about 3 miles outside of Alexandria to Fort Ward, one of the last remaining forts used in the defense of Washington during the Civil War. Nancy and I have great grandfathers who defended Washington at the end of the war.
Lunch - Char-broiled chicken and spinach burritos. We ate on the dock next to the Potomac.
Beautiful day - great food!
Dinner - I cooked for Nancy, Carol and Linda. Stir fried jumbo shrimp, carmelized onion in balsamic vinegar and fresh cut vegetables served over steamed rice.
