StrikeMePink: My Father’s Eyes


StrikeMePink: My Father’s Eyes
One of the things I have wanted to do for a while was visit the Newseum in Washington D.C. The museum, which is dedicated to journalism, is shiny and new and in a wonderful location right in view of the Capitol on Pennsylvania Avenue. However, unlike the Smithsonian Museums only blocks away, the Newseum is not free. In fact its pretty much $20 for entrance.So I decided I’m going to go with my dad, because a) he loves museums and b) if he goes he’ll pay for me.

But I also choose to go with my dad because he’s pretty much made it impossible for me to go to a museum without him...  http://strikemepink6.wordpress.com/2010/08/23/my-fathers-eyes/
