Thank You, Leslie and Wilma!! We took a whirlwind trip to DC to help our son move out of his house, which was located near the Basilica. As we were leaving town, we drove right by it. It was a beautiful warm day, and luckily we had to stop at a traffic light, which gave me a moment to roll down my window and take this. :)

This is a beautiful shot of a really beautiful building. I used to fly in the DC area and we used it as one of our landmarks. It's really pretty on the inside too.

Thank You So Much, Mark!! I would have loved to see inside. We were in traffic and pulling a trailer with our son's furniture, so there was no way my husband was going to stop. ;)

The link disappeared in the caption ... here it is again ...The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception

It is the largest Catholic church in the United States, the eighth largest religious structure in the world, and the tallest building in Washington, D.C.
