Trip to the State Capitol Building

My brother used to work at the state capitol building. We wanted to take advantage of the "grand tour" so we took him up on the offer. The boys had a great time and we were able to mark off one of Caleb's cub scout requirements at the same time!



In front of a remake of the Liberty Bell. Greg and I have seen the original.



Little itty bitty boys outside the front of the huge building!



The gold room.



This is the Governer's "show" office. He has an actual office behind that he really uses. My mom and I were noticing the fabric walls and felt them only to later find out that it's Italian silk and you're not supposed to touch it...oops!



The boys on the famous steps.



The only original elevator still in the building. Pretty cool.



The dome. The paintings are amazing.



Love this picture! But I should have turned Blake around so we could see him.



Future law makers. That's scary!
