Okay, it is John Brown's portrait from the National Gallery in Washington D.C. and my hair isn't quite this wild and my beard isn't that fully and bushy, but part of me really relates to how he looks. Of course the consensus is that John Brown was as crazy as a bed bug, but at least he had passion about ending slavery. Unfortunately that passion ended at the end of a hangman's noose.
I had barely 45 minutes to dash through the National Gallery. I've always loved the place. It is full of amazing art and it is free.
I just wish I had more time on this trip to see things. But I basically flew in one day, had an all day meeting and then flew out the third day.
