	Andrew Jackman in a rare moment of being humbled in the presence of the White House.
	Hi, we're from the Government and we're here to help. Run while you can. Jerry, Don, and Roger in front of the White House.
	The National Boy Scout Memorial.
	Inside the Capitol. Yes, it's blurry.
	Also inside the Capitol. Yes, it's blurry. Some of the guys are obviously 'stunned' by the grandeur.
	The Thomas Jefferson Memorial. Jefferson was the intellectual architect behind much of the philosophy and thought that later became embodied in the Constitution.
	The Lincoln Memorial at the west end of the Mall. From inside the memorial, you look out over the reflecting pond toward the Washington Monument, and past that all the way to the Capitol.
	Brian Jackson cruises the Mall in style on his razor scooter.
	The group takes a break while the tour guide shares some information about the Washington Mall area.
	The Iwo Jima Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery - just over the Potomac River from downtown Washington D.C. During the Civil War, this was actually in the territory of the Confederacy. The land that is now the Arlington National Cemetery was actually the estate of General Robert E. Lee. After the war, the Union seized the property. You can still tour the Gen. Lee house on the cemetery grounds.
	The group pauses for a Kodak moment in front of the Iwo Jima Memorial. The memorial recounts the bloody World War II battle for the island of Iwo Jima, during which a squad of US Marines made it to the top of Mount Surabachi and raised the American Flag.
	Roger chills out at the Hard Rock Cafe in downtown Washington D.C.
	The guys hang out at the ESPN Cafe.
	More ESPN Cafe.
	The group shares a Kodak moment in front of the Lincoln Memorial looking back up the Mall towards the Washington Monument. And so ends the grand tour of Washington D.C. - Now it's on to Fort A.P. Hill, about an hour or so to the south.
