National Archives
House I by Roy Lichtenstein
Sculpture Garden
We took the bus to the Sculpture Garden, across from the National Archives. Noticing a line at the Archives, Mrs. Looman took a vote, majority rules. Should we go to the Archives or the American History Museum? The majority voted for the Archives, so after a 30 minute walk through the Sculpture Garden, we crossed the street for an approximately 45 minute wait from the outside of the building to Archive's Rotunda, to see the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.
Did you know that in the Declaration of Independence the word "Representatives" is spelled wrong and the word "only" is missing. In the Constitution, Pennsylvania is only spelled with one "n" at the beginning. The government borrowed 15 million dollars to purchase the Louisiana Territory from France to put the national debt at $81 million in 1803.
