Rolling Thunder Rally, Memorial Day, Memorial Bridge
We took these photos during the Memorial Day Rolling Thunder Rally, in Washington DC. The statue of bronze is located just behind the Lincoln Memorial just after you cross the Memorial Bridge and Potomac river.
The statues, approximately 17 feet tall are of gilded bronze. They were commissioned in 1925, but were not erected until 1951.Memorial Bridge runs across the Potomac River from the Lincoln Memorial to Arlington House in Virginia.

Page Arizona Lake Powell
Typical beach day at lake Powell. I snapped these photos from the upper deck of our boat as we passed by. The water lever was high which made the lake deep blue in color. It looked so refreshing seeing its located in the middle of a dry desert climate.

Sitting on a throne sitting in a shrine. Lincoln's Memorial Washington D.C.
Rolling Thunder Rally
"Abraham Lincoln was the 16th President of the United States, serving from March 1861 until his assassination in 1865. He led the country through a great constitutional, military and moral crisis — the American Civil War — preserving the Union while ending slavery and promoting economic and financial modernization. Reared in a poor family on the western frontier, Lincoln was mostly self-educated. He became a country lawyer, an Illinois state legislator, and a one-term member of the United State House of Representatives but failed in two attempts at a seat in the United States Senate. He was an affectionate, though often absent, husband and father of four children".
