LincolnNew and improved version @RaceBannon

LincolnI haven't been to DC in 3 plus decades so haven't seen MLK, WWII, Korea or FDR. Still think it's Lincoln and not even close. And that's all I have to say about that.

Lincoln
Good enough for Clint and Rene -

The Throbber cried like a little bitch at the Korean Veterans Memorial. One of my two dads served in the forgotten war and lost him a few years back.
Outside the personal emotions, Lincoln or Jefferson - 1A/1B.
WWII is remarkably m'eh.

WashingtonI thought WE? were WASHINGTON DAMMIT
Be born 8 blocks away from the National Mall and drive by it every Sunday on the way to church then pop off.
(I remember my being forced to go to church due to being a child phase)
Washington does it for me. Rowing on the Potomac at daybreak, seeing the Washington Monument and Capitol on the horizon, is awesome. -
VietnamActually WW2 is the best. Oops

LincolnI’ve been there once when my kids were 2 & 6. It was cold and late so we only had time for the Wall and Abe.

FDRThis is my wheelhouse. Lived in DC for 14 years now. Still go down and walk around the monuments during off-peak/season tourist hours.
Lincoln and Washington are biggest and most iconic, but my favorite is FDR because it’s off the beaten path and tranquil. Never a million tourists there like the others. You can walk through it without fighting throngs of jackasses posing for stupid pictures. You can see the progression of the United States in murals from the Depression through WW2.
I also like Vietnam even though it gets crowded, it never seems touristy. It’s a somber place and you can feel the nation’s heartache.
WW2 is cool, but doesn’t have the same power and feeling as Vietnam. It’s also not as powerful as Lincoln.
Korean, like the war itself, is kind of forgotten among the other monuments. Not worth the time.

VietnamI went to the Vietnam wall with my Dad (RIP) who lost many friends there and the raw emotion of that experience will be with me forever. So Vietnam it is.
Lincoln is powerful stuff though. I am sure it will get cancelled and torn down soon. I'm hearing he didn't solve slavery quickly enough. Better see it quick.
Also, all jokes aside the Native American Museum is pretty good. Give it a look if you are ever down there. My uncle panhandles and verbally assaults catholic high school kids out front. -

Is there a room in the FDR memorial dedicated to throwing Americans isn’t prison camps? That would be pretty tranquil.spuden said:This is my wheelhouse. Lived in DC for 14 years now. Still go down and walk around the monuments during off-peak/season tourist hours.

Did you know the Rona flu has killed more Americans than died in Vietnam? #grimmilestoneYellowSnow said:
