Fountains and Posted Schedule
The fountains are on and the April schedule is posted. Senator Dole normally arrives at WWII Memorial at 10:30 and while he is supposedly there only to shake hands with veterans, I’ve never seen him turn down a handshake. He may be the most shaking guy on the planet! Jeff Miller and his lovely wife Tam are passing through town this weekend to accompany the fiance of Robert Tills, the first airman killed in WWII to a burial with full honors at Arlington. These ceremonies are sad but quite beautiful. I hope to be present and will do a little photo essay.
And again take a look at last year’s selects to get the “lay of the land.”
