Back in Session

We live approximately eight minutes from the Capitol. Surely, you'll be seeing several photographs of it because we attempt to leisurely stroll the Square more than average non-capital city living family. However, we skipped the official building today since the state legislature is back in session and the rotunda would likely be a crowded mass of suits with two boys rising above the chaos to hear their own echo. We made a bee line for the Children's Museum instead, and ran across this Capitol scale model and other Madison landmarks set in wooden block form. They found them to be just as interesting since they could actually drive their grimy, suspicious-looking, Matchbox-size recycling truck right up to the buildings' entrances and security didn't shoo them away.
