We visited the Smithsonian National Museum of American History with Ken's folks. After 2 years and a renovation, the museum had just reopened. I had visited the museum in 2003 and at that time the museum was displaying the flag that was unfurled from the roof of the Pentagon a day after 9-11-2001; the flag was an amazing sight. I included the 2003 photograph I took of the flag below. This time we had the opportunity to see The Star-Spangled Banner; photography was not permitted in the exhibition.
