A couple of weeks ago, we went to DC to visit our friend Rich. It was our first time visiting, and we really enjoyed the monuments and Rich's personal tour of the mall. It just so happens that the Solar Decathlon was on display on the mall lawn the weekend we were there. So one of my favorite parts of the weekend was touring the house from the University of Colorado. Unfortunately, they didn't win this year, nor did Penn State. The German's decided to show up and blow all the Americans out of the water. But the houses each school built were pretty cool. The other funny fact about the Solar Decathlon is that we figured out where the milk bottles from the local dairy had gone. Since we have moved here, the Meyer Dairy has posted signs on the entrance to inform customers to bring in their empty glass bottles for milk because they were running low. Well, FOUND THEM!...... Apparently, they were being used as a water heating system in the Penn State house. Check it out....Look in the window.
Anyway, here are some more pics from our weekend away. Oh yeah, also, we are hoping to continue to add to our collection of pics of Segway tours across America. We have some from San Diego and our short stay in Chicago. This one is from DC. So awesome.
