It's another request video and several of you have been asking me about "flooding" in Washington D.C. so I decided I'd go down to the Potomac River and show you what I see. I also took a trip up to Capitol Hill the other night where you told me there were also some scenes of water flowing in the streets (but I couldn't find any). This morning is a bit groggy because my phone starting pinging at 4:30am for 'shots fired' in the neighborhood, just up from the Vice President's house. While gunshots in DC are not exactly rare, gunshots in the part of town near the VP's house are a bit out of the norm. After the headlines screamed on local media about a "Shooting near the Naval Observatory" the details started to trickle out of a road rage incident that turned into gun play. Police are still looking for the suspect. We went by the scene and then the Vice President's house where we saw some protestors. So then we decided to just relax and head down the Lincoln Memorial where we caught a movie crew making a film, the Vietnam Wall where we were all alone, and the Einstein statue that most people don't even notice. I then head over to the White House where I fear the National Christmas tree is on it's last legs, and finished up with a glance at Lafayette Park, the World War I Memorial and then the Scottish Rite Masonic Temple just up the street, again because some of you asked for it.

If you haven't watched my live stream from last night, be sure to check it out in my library. We saw dozens of workers, with big trucks and forklifts descend on Lafayette Park dropping off NEW FENCE when all along we thought the fences were coming down. A worker even told us "we're just replacing the old fence" which was definitely quite a let down. But now is the morning after all this construction and deconstruction near the White House. What does it look like? The fences are down around the executive office buildings and the Treasury, but the Lafayette Park fence is still there, and access to Pennsylvania Avenue, the tourist mecca of the White House, is still restricted and closed. The pictures from the front of the White House that usually fill Facebook and Instagrams of school field trips from around the country are still going to have a big fence in them for some time to come.
