Old Abe said hey to all of the XYZ crew right after we had lunch at China Chilcano, a Jose Andres restaurant. We had a lovely lunch and some of the pickier eaters ventured outside their comfort zone, a great thing to see. Then we ubered over to the Lincoln Memorial. What a weird route we took. We crossed back over the Potomac and along the river than back over by Arlington Cemetery to the Lincoln Memorial.

No matter where you view the memorial one of the combatants is looking your way
So many names...
Two sets of eyes are looking at me
No it is not
I may have found the zone where no one is looking
