Look at the view

Yesterday, I decided to get out and take some more pics.  A place I hadn't visited was the scout statue.  Once I found it, I had a small uphill trek to the statue.  Google maps led me to a lower road. So if you visit, stay left when it says go right.  It's the last instruction.












After that, I headed over to the Federal Reserve Money Museum.  It's free, and cool.  When you go in, you get a badge, and a quick rundown of where you not allowed to take pictures.  It has a history of currency in the U.S., with coins from 1797. There is also paper currency and certificates.  There is a gold bar, and nice video talking about the history of the reserve. The area that you weren't allowed to take pic was of the vault and cash counting room.  You aren't allowed to enter, but only view behind glass.  The best part is you get a free bad of shredded money on the way out.  











On my way to Starbucks on the Plaza, I noticed the Nichols Fountain was running and some of it was covered with ice.
