Washington, DC -- District Patentees Memorial

Caveat: This post is probably interesting only to family members. This is the memorial dedicated to the Federal City's original patentees and is located on the corner of 15th and E Streets about a block away from the White House. Unfortunately, due to some fencing barriers erected for a remodelling project, I was unable to photograph the side of the memorial that displays Zachariah Wade's name, so for now you'll have to use your imaginations. When the fence comes down, I will update the photos.

Aside: for a laugh, check out this Florida fan's take on the real meaning behind the lyrics to Rocky Top.
