The family drove down to DC for the Spring Cub Scout hike at Roosevelt Island. However, the parking lot was full so they had to quickly make other plans.
First, they headed off to the nearby Pentagon Memorial. Pete nearly added 1 to the victim count at the memorial when he took a header jumping over a cement pylon at the entrance. Fortunately, he escaped with just a hip contusion.
Next, they drove a few short miles up to Maryland to visit the "other" side of Great Falls. Although the scenic overlooks and trails were closed due to the recent flooding, Pete and Sam found some side trails where they got to do a lot of rock climbing, stone skipping, and looking for caves.
They will need to go back another time to do the famous Billy Goat Trail.
