Heart Walk

Last weekend, we participated in the American Heart Association Heart Walk, on the National Mall. It was a surprisingly quick walk, I guess they didn't want to push the endurance of any survivors that were joining in the walk. Nonetheless, it was a really great time. There was a fairly big E&Y showing and Erin and I walked with the Partner from one of my jobs and his family.




Afterwards, we walked over to the Library of Congress and checked out the Saint John's Bible, which was on exhibit there! It is a pretty extraordinary project that our alma mater has undertaken. The Bible is very old-school and created in the ways of the medieval scholars, that they are actually using the quills of geese to do the calligraphy...pretty crazy! It was well worth the trip and highly recommended if the Bible stops in your neighborhood in the future. They didn't allow pics, but here is one of the ceiling of the library...I wish they would've paid attention to detail when building it.
