That is the official end of my photo tour of the Smithsonian. I have no other pictures that I think turned out good enough to post (some of the ones I posted I hesitated on as well).
Thanks for looking and for your kind comments
Bob

Really great photos, Bob!
Thanks for taking time to share your SI visit. I loved seeing the displays and your comments.
Please post more when you visit other museums and collections.
