JLand Photo Shoot #131 - Sacred

 JLand Photo Shoot #131 - Sacred

Josh got a new fancy semi pro camera to help him take up a hobby.  I encouraged him to play along in these J~Land challenges to help him get ideas lol but this is what he said:

"This a picture I would submit as "sacred" .  Independence Hall with an American Flag waving to the side. You can post it for me if you want. I just can't bring myself to start a "blog".

LOL  I don't know why he has such an abrasion to blogging.. silly man of mine.  But I will post his pic for him because I love it and I didn't have time to do mine.. I was going to take a pic of my wedding ring as an entry for Sacred.  As you may guess Josh is currently in Philly and oh what wonderful things he gets to see being right down town.  I hope the kids and I get an opportunity to visit him if he is there threw the summer to see all the historic sights.

Intendance Hall is where the first Congress signed The Declaration Of Independence.  They also have on display one of the original copies but Josh said it was too crowded and dark to get a good picture of it.  I think this is an excellent place to consider Sacred.. it is a turning point in history and should be very dear to every American.

  2. Great picture!  Wow, how historic!  I got to see the Declaration of Independence once.  It was brought to DC.  It was placed under glass.  Of course it was brought back to Indepependence Hall a short time later, no doubt.  Tell your husband thanks so much for taking the picture!

  3. I like how this fits the theme.  There are so many ways to interrupt this theme.  Nicely done - how I'd like to visit myself. :-)
