The National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception on Memorial Day



I'm a little late with this post but draped from the bell tower of the Shrine is this immense American flag. I would really like to see them unfurl it one of these day.






These last two pictures are the depiction of Jesus above the main altar. It sort of looks like Jesus is doing cross fit. He seems just a little too muscular to me.

Star Wars Day at Nats' Park



Strasburg was certainly channeling the force on this day. But here are a bunch of pictures showing all the fun that went into the day.

As I'm doing these posts I'm listening to the Star Wars soundtrack. I thought it was most appropriate.

Duel in the Outfield



Before the game the Jedi and the Sith dueled in the outfield. The Jedi won of course.





Storm Troopers!

This kid's expression is priceless



And this is the company that puts it all together




R2-D2 Was There Too!








This guy was controlling all the action. He had a remote in each hand.
