Theres this special moment in the day. I don’t know if it happens everyday but if you’re lucky you’ll see it. As the sun is setting behind the Lincoln Memorial, about 10 minutes before it goes all the way down, the Washington Monument illuminates. Most people are facing the Lincoln and checking out the beautiful sky there, but if you take a quick second to turn around the Washington Monument is so beautiful and colorful. It always makes me smile.
