Marble columns! Elegant, sturdy, and bursting with class.

Nothing says you've got money and power like marble columns! You put marble columns on your house and that place looks like a mansion!

Look at these columns! Look at this one. Look at that one.

You gotta get yourself some marble columns!

Where was that pic taken Mr. Hippo? Looks like a "green screen" Fx to me!!!

I'll blog about them more at a later date, but these "marble columns" are really sandstone columns from the U.S. Capitol Building. You can learn more about them here.

I think you must have been at the National Arboretum in D.C. That's where those columns are located. The arboretum is a lovely place, esp. in April when the azaleas are in full floral bloom. The only problem is that the surrounding area is kind of dicey. I don't think a little hippo like yourself should be going through bad D.C. 'hoods. You're better in a pleasant suburban setting.

WOW! I stand corrected Mr. Hippo!
I apologize for doubting you.
I'll add those to my "bucket list"!
Thank you for the info.
