Dawn, in front of the White House, at 18. c.1978 - DawnNBirdWhiteHouse.jpg

We stopped, in front of the White House, just as we drove into DC, for the first time. Some guy was selling peanuts and there were so many pigeons around him. I don't think we'd be able to do that now. Even then, the signs said: No parking, No standing, No stopping. We did anyway! LOL!

Dawn 6 years old.
