Thursday - Day 4 - The Final Day

Home at last!

Well the trip is over and we have made it back safe and sound. Our day was filled with checking out and travel but we did hit a couple DC spots before we left.

First on the agenda was Ford Theater and the Petersen House. I can say that I am glad that I have seen it, but not worth the hour and forty minutes of lines. The Ford Theater has been totally redone and so it is not the actual balcony Lincoln was shot and the furniture in the Petersen House is all replicas. The boys were even less impressed. But the next stop would make up for that...

The International Spy Museum was a lot of fun. In here we got to test our skill in the art of espionage and to see the evolution of spy equipment. It was a lot of fun and very interesting to read the stories and see the technology that has been used. We would tell you more, but then we might have to kill you. :)

We then ate at the Hard Rock Cafe, then headed back to our hotel to grab our bags and head to the airport.

I want to thank all the guys for making this trip a lot of fun. They represented their school, their families and the Lord, well on this trip. They were giving in their encounters with everyone we came in contact with and several times impressed the people around us with their southern charm. A special thanks to Kevin Mahoney for ALL he did to make this trip an even bigger success. Carol with Joshua Expeditions did a great job leading us around town and taking care of all the "business" and Debra was also a lot of fun as she shared her city with us. All in all, a great trip! I am thankful to have had the opportunity to go to Washington with this group of guys. I was blessed by them. Thank you also to Joey Richards for all of his hard work on the front end and for allowing me to take this trip.

I am sure the guys are all in bed. I am about to do the same. See below for some pics. Thanks for keeping up with us. Be Blessed!
