stars on maps

earlier this summer, i made it to my 14th capital--salt lake city, utah. somehow, state capital visiting has become a family tradition & has been passed on through the generations to me.

so far i have visited:
washington, dc
sacramento, california
salem, oregon
boise, idaho (though this barely counts as i was so young i hardly remember it)
carson city, nevada
springfield, illinois
idianapolis, indiana
trenton, new jersey
annapolis, maryland
dover, delaware
richmond, virginia
raleigh, north carolina
columbia, south carolina
AND
salt lake city, utah

a trip to a state capital only counts if you visit the actual capitol building. seeing the town is simply not enough.

and so, i give you photographic proof of my most recent capitol visit:


lots of capitol buildings have domes, which are difficult to capture. this was my attempt.

  1. I think you should also count the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. As I recall, it also has a dome ...
