A quick trip to DC

I popped on out to DC over the weekend to pick up Child #1 who was visiting with my folks. While I was there we went to Ford's Theater, which as an Illinois native I've always wanted to visit, and the Holocaust museum. Honestly, I didn't know that there was a Holocaust museum until Stephen Johns, a museum guard, was gunned down by a crazy old man last month. The museum is truly powerful. It's wonderfully organized and completely effective. If you go, give yourself a lot of time to read everything and watch all the videos. This is something that we cannot forget.

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
-Edmund Burke
