Bill at INDC Journal was out and about this weekend covering the World War II Memorial Dedication Weekend. He was armed with a digital camera and notebook, and gives you the story up close and personal
Check out the first installment of his excellent coverage. It’s just like being there – without the annoying cicadas.
Update: Part II is now available.
I came up on Friday, the Memorial is fantastic. All the petty whining and griping about it was immediately put into the perspective of snivelish ankle nipping when I saw the vets it honored walking around, the looks on their faces, and the faces of their family members.
oh, yeah. Cicadas? What freeking cicadas? I only saw one! (well there were some smushed/dead ones over in Crystal City, but…) I think you guys are griping too much about a couple of little bugs.

You were just in the wrong part of town. In Vienna the building I was at last week you had to run the gauntlet to get to your car. It was jet engine loud.
