ha, yup. That one’s pretty old news to the locals, actually. You need binoculars to see him up there.
This was a “Must-See” when I went to DC years ago. The church has actual maps printed to help you spot him! He’s waaaay up high,-you need binoculars to see him!
Yeah, I’d heard of it before. Just wasn’t sure if I’d blogged it…
I think Ranger Rick magazine reported on this when it first happened . . . I remember reading the brief interview with the kid who did it.
Scratch that; the article mentions it was in National Geographic World. I forgot I even *got* that magazine until my memory was jogged by the article.
