I remember it being very beautiful but should go back as an adult because I would be much more appreciative of its splendor now as an adult. We did get to climb to the very top of the dome when we went, I think that is what I remember most, that and the marble stairs, I remember eating our sack lunches on them. I don't think they let Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16454925115428994669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081935496433793514.post-75418345443899235132011-01-24T18:16:28.333-08:002011-01-24T18:16:28.333-08:00What an amazing opportunity that was, and to get t...What an amazing opportunity that was, and to get to take your grandson and see it through his eyes too. I never imagined a state capitol could be so beautiful. I saw ours (CA) as a child, but it doesn't compare. You did a great job taking pictures. Love the marble and that carpet. Wonder how they kept it looking so good.<br />Love your new blog look too.

Hubby and I finally got a personal tour of it from our friend Pat McDonald, who is Assist. to the Sec.of State, a couple years ago, before he went on a military tour of Iraq.

On a cross country trip my Baby Bee ran up and down the capitol steps in Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Colorado. Some of the states we drove through we only saw at night so we didn't get to do this in every state. One day we'll make it to Olympia!
