After one day of solid travel, the first stop: Ohio's capitol in Columbus.
Closed a gap of mine on I-70, giving me a continuous stretch from Indianapolis to Frederick MD.
The ever-elusive two-state-highway BGS gantry.
Going in and out of West Virginia quickly on I-470 (clinched) and I-70.
Going in and out of West Virginia (again) on I-79 and I-68.
Still in the Mississippi River watershed.
Sideling Hill cut. If I had known the visitors center would close permanently two weeks later, I might have asked to stop.
I-68 zero to clinched!
From here, going in and out of West Virginia quickly (yet again!) on US 522.
West end of I-66. Came into Rosslyn with some light left.
Line down the block for the National Museum of American History.
Views from the Old Post Office
Had a little time for checking things out before scheduled Capitol tour.
Chandelier in Old Supreme Court
Capitol Rotunda bustling with tourists
Left: Tour guide demonstrating acoustics of Old House Chamber. Right: The vice president of the Confederacy. (Wait a second...)
Detail of Tama Jim Wilson on decorative doors
Louis Kossuth, namesake of Kossuth County, hanging out in an alcove. (Iowa connections everywhere!)
One of Iowa's two Statuary Hall statues that may or may not eventually be replaced by Norman Borlaug.
How's this for a unique, rare sign find? This was at Constitution and 2nd, but Google Street View makes it look like this sign is gone now.
Taking a day trip to TWO state capitols, but first to go across the new Woodrow Wilson Bridge.
