A few things:
1) I'm incredibly touched and flattered. And I have NO IDEA why you're asking me of all people.
2)Hannah only had three glasses and only threw up once this new year.
But she's thrown up for all of the other holidays this holiday season, so we thought we'd induce this holiday's vomiting with alcohol. This way, we at least new where it came from.
Here are my favorite choices probably in order of favorites
1st: Monument in Moonlight (For artistic composition)
2nd: Memorial in autumn (For one I'd LOOOOVE to hang in my house)
3rd: I really like the mallard photo for one that is incredible but unrelated to DC architecture/symbolism
The first two choices are completely my hands down decision. However, Just as an fyi: Jeff really struggled between old glory and signs as the third one. And I really struggled with Old Glory and American Autumn. So Old Glory really should probably be our third choice. Its
just that the picture of the Duck is so incredible!!!!! Wow, Robert,
God has endowed you with an incredible artistic gift!
I hope I helped! I'd ask Hannah but she's still hung over.
