Valley Forge and Philadelphia

This past weekend the whole Washington Seminar group + Elder & Sister Fulkerson (senior missionary couple assigned to the Barlow Center + Professor Goodliffe's family went on a bus ride, first to Valley Forge, and then on Saturday to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Here are some of our photos from the trip. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm not really in the mood to write down everything we did.
