Visit to the Capitol Building!

I'm a state worker. So I had the day off work. As my dad says, I'm "in the trough now!" Hey, I was going to take advantage of it. So we all decided to go the Capitol Campus and partake of the energy. Since we're in the Legislative Session there was a lot of people. Today, it was mostly union folk (SEIU was well represented).

Anyway, I love Capitol Campus. Not only is there energy, it's just so darn pretty.



There she is! A few earthquakes have almost brought her down. But now it's been stabilized.



Sterling is just the cutest child. Comin' out of the chute, I wasn't so sure that would be the case since I was supplying half the genes. Kid got lucky, though!



This is look UP one of the pillars on the front of the Capitol building. Most people look up when they're inside the building and can look all the way up to the dome. But there are several beautiful places that most people don't bother to look at. This is one of them.



This must have been one heck of a router :)!!!

Sometime in the 70s, this World War I statue was painted a hideous gold color. At a great cost to taxpayers - but worth it if you saw the gold paint - it was finally restored to its original bronze.



Me and Sterling.
