Smithsonian American Portrait Gallery


My old friend Roger from Washburn High School is in town with his wife Betty Jean. We spent all day at the American Portrait Gallery. I had been to this museum twice before but I had never viewed the Portrait Gallery of the Presidents, the core of the museum's collection. Enjoy the photos of my friends and of our illustrious presidents.
