No, I don't think I know him." Even though he didn't make the connection, it made for a nice little Mayberry moment for me!"
I love those Mayberry moments! I wish everyone could make the connection when we sneak little quotes in, but I guess it's enough that we enjoy them and can share them here. We went to that Smith Brothers Institute down in Washington but I didn't see Barney's motorcycle or anything from TAGS. The American History museum is closed but there was a little display in the Air and Space museum. I guess I'll need to go over to the Armory there in Mayberry. To Brian in Maryland: I did see the Smithsonian Castle as we were dashing by. As it happened, Washington was having a snow storm and was quite windy the day we were there (Sunday). We were all tired, hungry and cold so I didn't make the kids or hubby wait. We just ran for the car. (But actually, it was warm by NY standards). To anyone who goes to DC, the Holocaust museum is well worth a visit. It's horrifying, but we need to see it. To John: Thanks for the explanation that ramps are leeks. I know what a leek is but had never heard of the eating kind of ramps. This digest surely is educational.
